Dehydrate at 115F for 12 hours, flipping halfway through.

Notes

To keep recipe vegan, use coconut nectar or agave nectar in place of honey.

Almond pulp is created when homemade almond milk is made. If you make your own nut or seed milks, hold on to the fiber that’s left after you make a batch. You can freeze it until you’ve built up a stockpile. Learn how to make your own nut and seed milks
