- Ingredients:
- 2
- Yields:
-
1 cup
ingredients
- 1 cup whole unblanched almond
- 1⁄16 teaspoon water (*do not* add the water to the almonds!)
directions
- Place half of the whole, unblanched almonds in a clean electric coffee bean grinder.
- Place the lid on the coffee bean grinder and pulse several times until a medium-fine textured meal forms. Don't over-grind or you will make almond butter!
- Put ground almond meal in a clean flour sifter. Sift almond meal. Place any large particles of almonds back in coffee bean grinder and pulse again. Sift remaining almond meal.
- Repeat with the other half.
- Tips: It is important to refrigerate (or wrap, label-including the date and freeze) any unused almond meal because it can become rancid after being ground and exposed to oxygen and light.
- Store-bought almond meal is frequently made with blanched almonds- almonds that have had the skins removed. To maintain the valuable nutrition, use almonds with their skins on because the skin contains healthy antioxidants.
- Use any nut to make fresh, delicious nut meals using this simple technique.
