How to Make Almond Butter in a Ninja Blender

Want creamy, dreamy almond butter? Your Ninja blender can make it! This guide shows you how, step-by-step.

What You Need

• Raw almonds (about 2 cups)
• Ninja blender (any model works, but high-powered ones are faster)
• Optional: a little salt, honey, or cinnamon for flavor
• Patience (this takes a few minutes!)

Making Your Almond Butter

Step 1: Add the Almonds

Pour your almonds into the Ninja blender jar. Don’t overfill it – about 2 cups is perfect.

Step 2: Blend!

Put the lid on tight and start blending. Begin on a low speed, then gradually increase to high.

Step 3: Scrape and Repeat

The almonds will go through stages: crumbly, then a dry ball, then a thick paste. You’ll need to stop and scrape down the sides of the blender jar several times. This helps everything blend evenly.

Step 4: Be Patient

This is the hardest part! Keep blending and scraping. It can take anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes for the almonds to release their oils and turn into smooth butter. Your blender might get warm – that’s normal.

Step 5: Add Flavor (Optional)

Once the butter is smooth, you can add a pinch of salt, a drizzle of honey, or a sprinkle of cinnamon. Blend for a few more seconds to mix it in.

Step 6: Enjoy!

Store your almond butter in a jar in the fridge. It will last for several weeks.

Tips and Tricks

• Roasting your almonds beforehand can give a deeper flavor, but it’s not necessary.
• If your butter is too thick, add a teaspoon of oil (like coconut or olive oil) and blend again.
• Don’t give up! It might seem like it’s not working, but keep blending and scraping, and you’ll get there.
