MAPLE ALMOND BUTTER


~ Shari Todd

2 c. raw almonds
3-4 T. maple syrup
pinch of sea salt
1 t. cinnamon
dash vanilla

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Mix almonds and syrup, then place on a foil-lined baking sheet or pan. Bake 20-25 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes. 

Cool for a few minutes, then place in food processor and process until smooth. Add salt, cinnamon, and vanilla, then process until smooth.

Makes about 1 cup.

Notes: I like to spread this on toasted English muffins, dip strawberries or apples in it, use it as an oatmeal topping, or just eat it by the spoonful.
