Directions

  1. 1. Note: Use unblanched almonds; they are more nutritious when they still have their skins on. Use a dedicated sifter for this process because gluten can contaminate the almond meal making it dangerous if you have a gluten allergy.
  2. 2. Place the almonds in a clean coffee grinder and close the cover. Pulse the grinder several times; continue until you have a coarse, medium fine textured meal.
  3. 3. Empty the flour from the coffee grinder into a clean flour sifter. Place any large pieces back into the grinder and process until they are the desired texture.
  4. 4. Sift all the almond meal into a clean glass or plastic container with a lid. Store in the refrigerator for up to thirty days before discarding any unused portion.
