Almond butter with tahini is made from ground almonds mixed with tahini, a paste of ground sesame seeds. Some versions also include salt, sweeteners, or added oil, so the flavor and texture can vary between recipes and products.
Blend roasted almonds until they turn into a smooth paste, then mix in tahini and a pinch of salt if desired. Keep blending or stir thoroughly to combine; add sweetener only if you want a sweeter spread.
Spread almond butter with tahini on toast, swirl it into oatmeal, or spoon it over sliced fruit. It also works in sauces and dressings; thin it with water or lemon juice when you want a pourable consistency.
Oil separates in almond butter with tahini because the natural oils from almonds and sesame can rise to the surface over time. This is normal and does not by itself mean the spread has spoiled; stir it well before serving.
Refrigeration is a good choice for almond butter with tahini, especially homemade or additive-free versions, because it helps slow rancidity. Keep the jar tightly closed and use a clean, dry utensil; chilled spread may become firmer and harder to spread.
Almond butter with tahini tastes nutty, with the sesame flavor of tahini adding a deeper, slightly earthy note. Unsweetened versions are not dessert-sweet, while honey, dates, or other sweeteners make the flavor noticeably sweeter.
Yes, almond butter with tahini can replace peanut butter in many spreads, oatmeal bowls, and smoothies. Its sesame flavor is more pronounced, so it may change the taste of baked goods or sauces; start with the same amount and adjust to taste.
Almond butter with tahini can fit into a weight-loss eating plan, but it is energy-dense and large servings can add up quickly. Use a measured spoonful on fruit, toast, or oats rather than eating directly from the jar.
Yes, almond butter with tahini can be used in cookies, bars, and other baked goods, adding a nutty sesame flavor and richness. It may make a recipe denser or less sweet than peanut butter, so follow a recipe designed for nut butter when possible.
Discard almond butter with tahini if it smells rancid or sharply unpleasant, tastes distinctly bitter, or shows mold. A layer of oil that mixes back in when stirred is normal; it is not the same as spoilage.

Almond butter with tahini combines ground almonds with sesame paste in a rich, spreadable mixture. It has a mellow, lightly sweet nuttiness from the almonds, balanced by tahini’s deeper, toasted flavour; the texture may be smooth or slightly coarse.
It works on toast, stirred into porridge or spooned over fruit, and is also useful in sauces and dressings. Across the English-speaking world, it can be an alternative to plain nut butter at breakfast or as a snack. It provides plant protein and is rich in fats and vitamin E, so a little goes a long way; pair a thin spread with fruit for a lighter bite.
High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
