After around 15 minutes, you will see the oils separating and the consistency will change.
Continue until the butter is a smooth creamy consistency, about 20-30 minutes.
Notes
If using a Blendtec with a Twister Jar, turn the blender on speed 7. Turn the lid clockwise and blend for 40 seconds.If using a Vitamix, turn blender to speed variable 10. Blend for about a minute, using the tamper to push the almonds down as needed. Stop once the almond butter is smooth and creamy.
