I recently found out I have a sensitivity to almonds, so I had cut them from my diet temporarily so I can see how my body reacts to them after a period of elimination. This means almond butter is off limits. What's a woman to do other than make my own keto mixed nut and seed butter? And so we have this recipe. Feel free to adjust the chosen nuts and seeds based on your preferences and make it your own.
