How to keep the rest
After opening, store the almond butter in a cool, dry place, such as your pantry. Refrigeration is not required but can help maintain freshness for longer periods. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed to prevent spoilage and maintain the best texture. Stirring may be necessary before each use due to natural oil separation.
