Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line a large baking tray with parchment paper. Arrange the almonds in a single layer and bake for 8-10 minutes. They're ready when they are golden brown, but NOT burned. Remove from the oven.
Step 2
Add the almonds and salt (if using) to a food processor. Process on high speed until creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides often. The almonds will turn from whole, to flour, to clumps, to a large ball, and eventually, creamy, luscious butter. It will take several minutes of processing, anywhere between 3-10 minutes. Give your machine 30-60 second breaks, as needed, to prevent overheating.
Step 3
Transfer to a clean and dry container or jar and use as you would any other nut butter.
