Can you chop almonds fine for almond flour?

I haven't tried that but I'm sure it can. It's very powerful and sharp. I only tap it a total of 3-4 times to chop ginger down to fluid

I don't think so! I could not make garlic powder out of granulated garlic, but have not tried to powder nuts.

I have never made almond flour, but I would say that this food processor is better for making salsa type outcomes rather than ultra-fine outcomes. Does that make sense? The blades just don't seem to get close enough to the container for anything too small to result. That said, I love this product. It works well for me, no complaints.

I use mine to make almond flour all the time. It's perfect, and you get the benefit of the almond "skin" unlike in your store bought almond flours. If you run it too long you can get close to making almond butter.

Yes, it is simply ground almonds, although it is a finer grind than I would be able to do with my food processor or any other piece of equipment most home cooks would have.

I have not tried for her recipes. I have tried this almond flour for other recipes and have decided that I will give up baking., I have not found any recipe that I like with either almond or coconut flour or any using both flours. It is not cheap baking with these flours and if I can't enjoy anything baked with it why bothers. I guess my motto has to be "keep it simple".

No, although it could be used for dredging (coating), but it does have a sweet taste. Coconut flour is much more absorbent than almond flour. The amount of flour used would need to be decreased or the liquids increased, which affects the entire recipe. It's usually easier to use an existing recipe (unless you really like to experiment with recipes).

I have not tried chopping nuts, but I imagine there would be no problem if the nuts were coarsely chopped before putting them in the chopper. I make awesome pico or salsa, but i always start with the onions, tomatoes, and peppers cut into pieces. If i cannot easily pull the cable, I reduce the size of whatever is being chopped. As for pesto, i would use nuts like walnuts because they can easily be chopped. The chopper is so much easier to use than the food processor or the blender.

I use this mainly for gluten free baking, I would say no ...this almond meal/flour should not directly replace regular wheat/white flour, depends on your recipe(s)

In my experience, yes, you can. The results should be as good or better because this is a very fine flour therefore you shouldn't have any grittiness in the product you are baking. I have noticed a big difference in using this flour as compared to other "cheaper" brown rice flours.

I don't know if it would be good for macaroons, I haven't used it for that. It would be perfectly appropriate for any recipe that calls for almond meal or almond flour.

No I have not refrigerate it. I treat it as ordinary flour. .....but I have recently found out that the FDA has ordered all almonds in the US to be pasteurized. As a result most our almonds (if not all) are being pasteurized using Propylene oxide is a known carcinogenic for cancer. No one should consume US almonds. I recommend that you google "FDA pasteurized almonds" to verify. I personally will be using coconut flour

Hi Amazon Customer!Our almonds are conventionally grown - conventionally grown products, use fertilizers and pesticides which allow for higher yield, out of season growth, greater resistance, and greater longevity. After growth, the almonds used in our natural almond flour are then steam pasteurized. The blanched almonds are considered pasteurized when they go through the blanching process (which uses steam to remove the skins to get the white color of blanched flour). Additionally, all of our almonds are non-GMO.Best, Anthony's Staff

Everyone's taste varies. I would try it in a small amount to find the right density & consistency to make the tortilla. Frying Almond flour will probably cook faster, so beware you don't burn the tortilla or the oil you will be using. We use Pure Coconut Oil & Pure Olive Oil but since you can not tolerate Coconut, what about peanut oil? For me I like to experiment. If you have the time and like doing that, then experiment. Yes please let us know, what you did and how it turned out! Happy Thanksgiving!!

Yes, you can. The time will vary, but as long as you keep at it, this machine will make almond butter. At first it will look like a lot of chopped nuts, possibly powder. Let it continue. It'll start looking clumpy and slightly wet. After a while, it becomes smooth. Mine takes less than 15 minutes.

I have used this to make almond flour, but I have not tried peanuts or peanut butter.

You can chop them to be as course or fine as you'd like, using the "pulse" feature. You can turn dried bread very nearly back into flour.

I use it in cookies. When it calls for2cups I use 1 1/2 cups almond flour and 1/2 cups regular flour. They turn out better according to my husband
