So, keep going and have patience. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIf it's still too dry after blending for 20 minutes, then you can add in oil. It's usually unnecessary to add in oil as the almonds release natural oils when blended in the food processor, but there might be times where you need it to reach your desired creamy consistency.

Whichever oil you choose, start with 1/2 a tablespoon and work your way up.
