California Mission almonds, roasted and milled in Missouri

Enjoy almond butter made with California-grown Mission almonds and almond oil. East Wind dry-roasts and mills the non-blanched almonds into smooth or crunchy butter without added sugar, sweeteners, preservatives, palm oil or stabilizers. The result is a versatile almond spread for toast, breakfast bowls and recipes that call for almond butter.

Two ingredients and a specific origin statement

Ingredients: almonds and almond oil. The almonds are grown in California, and the finished butter is manufactured in Tecumseh, Missouri. The manufacturer’s public information does not separately state the almond oil’s agricultural origin, so this listing does not imply that every ingredient is verified as U.S.-grown.

The maker identifies the product as vegan, gluten-free, non-GMO and kosher. Its FAQ says the almonds it purchases are steam-pasteurized. Read the container’s current Nutrition Facts and ingredient declaration when comparing serving sizes or dietary requirements.

Choose a household jar or a smooth bulk option

Both smooth and crunchy almond butter are listed in 16 oz glass jars. Smooth almond butter also has 15 lb and 35 lb bucket options. These are individual containers; a bulk bucket is not a case of smaller jars. Check the selector for availability before deciding which size suits your kitchen and how quickly you expect to use it.

• Spread either texture on toast or serve a small portion with sliced fruit.
• Stir smooth almond butter into oatmeal, a smoothie or a recipe filling.
• Use crunchy almond butter when you want extra texture in a sandwich or snack.
• Choose a smooth bucket for repeated bakery or kitchen preparation.
