StaceyinLA Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 Is there anything you do with the almond pulp after straining to keep from just wasting it? Ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerPoppy Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 Beauty treatments, such as an almond scrub for face or body. I haven't tried this, but I'd use it as a filler/extender in hamburgers or in big, chunky, oatmeal-type cookies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyLady Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 I made some raw cookies once, but I won't be making those again anytime soon.... :glare: :lol: I know there's a lot you can do with it, I just haven't gotten around to doing much. From what I understand, you can freeze it until you want to use it, which is what I've been doing. I know you can use it in baked goods, dry it in a dehydrator, then grind it and use it as flour, add to soups..... I'll be watching this for other ideas. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StaceyinLA Posted March 28, 2012 Author Share Posted March 28, 2012 because I need some ideas! I have some almond meal/pulp, whatever, sitting in the strainer in my kitchen waiting for me to create something with it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penelope Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 If you have a high-powered blender that grinds it up very fine, you can just shake it up and leave it with the almond milk. Depending on what you are using it for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theYoungerMrsWarde Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 You could maybe make your own homemade almond-peanut butter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StaceyinLA Posted March 28, 2012 Author Share Posted March 28, 2012 today I added the almond meal to some oat muffins. My blender definitely doesn't do it to where I could just keep it in the milk. I may try adding it to nut butter or something next time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NicAnn Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 You can use it in baking, like almond flour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mytwomonkeys Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 You can use it in baking, like almond flour. :iagree: just dehydrate it (or dry it out) and wait until you get enough to use as almond flour. voila.:) i've also read it can be used as an egg substitute, but i've not used it that way.

plath Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I dried it in the oven for a bit and then added it to homemade granola. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjzimmer1 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I add it to to streusel topping instead of the pecans my recipe calls for. I also add some in whenever I make muffins, pancakes, breakfast bars, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
