Amlou

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups almonds

9 tablespoons Argan oil

9 tablespoons olive oil

5 tablespoons agave nectar or honey

Preparation

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Spread almonds out on cookie sheet and toast them for about 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool.

Once the almonds are room temperature place them in a food processor and grind them until they are as fine as possible. Start drizzling in the oils and agave nectar one tablespoon at a time while the food processor is on in order to kneed the oils into the nut paste. Alternate between adding one tablespoon of each liquid until the almond mixture is runny and no longer a thick paste. Once you have a slightly soupy mixture taste the amlou and adjust the flavor by adding more Argan oil or agave nectar depending on your preference.
