Homemade Vegan Almond Paste – Gretchen’s Vegan Bakery

Sometimes I forget how easy it is to make homemade pantry items!

Homemade Vegan Almond Paste is probably the easiest of all!
Just a few ingredients and a few minutes is all it takes!

Soft pliable Almond Paste for all your recipes is best made from almond flour not whole almonds

In the past I tried making almond paste from whole almonds and my food processor could not process it smooth enough
Even with the fine ground almond flour you will still need a heavy duty food processor to blend everything to a paste

A good quality Almond Extract is essential to the beautiful taste of this almond paste
