Cooking Tips

• You can make your own almond butter by blending roasted almonds until smooth.
• Serve the almond butter bostock with a dusting of powdered sugar or a drizzle of honey for extra sweetness.

Storage and Serving

• Almond butter bostock is best enjoyed fresh, but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
• Serve the bostock as a delicious breakfast or brunch treat, paired with a cup of coffee or tea.
• You can also serve it as a dessert, accompanied by a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
