Gut Friendly Paleo Almond Butter

Roasting whole raw almonds before blending is the secret move that takes homemade nut butter from good to genuinely craveable — that deep, toasty fragrance fills the kitchen and translates directly into flavor. The food processor does the heavy lifting, coaxing the almonds through a crumbly stage and then into a glossy, pourable butter that store-bought versions rarely match. A touch of coconut oil helps the texture along, while honey and a hint of vanilla round out the natural nuttiness without overwhelming it. Because every ingredient here is whole and unprocessed, this spread sidesteps the refined oils, emulsifiers, and additives that can be rough on a sensitive gut. It's the kind of thing you'll want to keep a jar of in the fridge at all times — ready to swipe onto apple slices, stir into a smoothie, or eat straight off the spoon. Stored in a glass jar, it keeps in the refrigerator for up to three weeks, so one batch goes a long way.
