Ingredients

• 560 g raw almonds, or blanched almonds (no skin)

Directions

1. Place the almonds into the Vitamix container and secure the lid.
2. Start the blender on its lowest speed, then quickly increase to its highest speed. Blend for 5 – 7 seconds, then quickly stop the machine.
3. Remove the lid and scrape the sides of the container with a spatula. Repeat the same process until desired consistency is achieved.
    

Notes

• A finely ground almond flour is a great baking substitute if you need a light, gluten-free and protein-filled flour.
• Almond flour with a coarser grind may be used as a breading, binder, or wherever a coarsely ground flour is needed - just be careful when cooking it, as it will burn more easily than other flours.
• Please refer to our dry grain grinding chart for more details on grinding whole wheat flour.
