Hazelnut almond butter is my favorite nut butter. The both nuts mix perfectly and end up being oily enough without a bitter taste. You can easily get this slightly bitter taste if you add walnut to your nut butter. Your butter will be super oily and creamy but I would recommend adding a spoon of honey to contrast with too much bitterness.
Almonds and hazelnuts after being roasted and cooled down release oil. But before they transform in powder. You can use this powder for your cakes. Then they become very thin flour. Finally, they become a thick paste before becoming butter.
You will need a powerful food processor.
I use either my Vitamix or my Kitchen Aid. If your food processor if not powerful enough, you’ll burn the resistance. Your machine is going to work for a while, so better have a good one or you’ll end up with a broken one!

I love making my own nut butter! Your mix of almond and hazelnut sounds fun. Have you tried adding brazil nuts to your mix and perhaps a touch of cinnamon? My favourite! 🙂
