How to make almond flour at home

The first thing to do is to put the almonds in a bowl and pour boiling water. We give it to cool until warm, to be able to put their hands into the bowl and do not get burned.

Next, remove the brown skin with each nut. While peel the nut one, the rest are in the water, you do not need to be drained. And nuts are dried up, and this will make it quite difficult. Decompose prepared nuts onto the parchment and put them in the oven mode in the "defrost" or expose a temperature of 30 ° C. Nuts should be well dry. I have it takes 4-5 hours.

Next, grind nuts in a coffee grinder to a powder.

The resulting flour is sifted through a fine colander. If your sifting flour began to gather in clumps, like me in the photo, it means that the nuts were not fully dried out properly.

In this case, we proceed as follows: finish sifting, spread it on the parchment on a baking sheet. Almond flour is dried again in the oven at the same time for about an hour.

Ready meal spread in a jar and close the lid very tight, if not going to use it immediately.

I peppered it on a dish and be used immediately. At this time, the oven will be delicious almond pancakes.
