Ingredients
Oops! Something went wrong. Our team is working on it.
2 cups fresh basil leaves
½ cup Parmesan cheese
¼ cup whole raw almonds
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil, or more as needed
1 clove garlic, peeled
Directions
Combine basil, Parmesan cheese, almonds, olive oil, and garlic in a food processor; pulse until blended. Pour in more olive oil, with the processor running, until pesto is thick and smooth.
Cook’s Note
You can use roasted garlic in place of raw.
If you'd like roasted almond pesto, toast the almonds at 450 degrees F (230 degrees C) for about 10 minutes before following the recipe.
