Ingredients
Instructions
- To make vanilla powder, you will first need to dry the vanilla beans. This can be done by placing them on baking paper and bake in the oven for around an hour and a half to two hours at 77˚C (170˚F). Check on the beans every 30 minutes to see if they are hard. They are ready when they are brittle and break easily. If they are not dry enough, they will not grind, so make sure they are completely dry moving onto the next step.
- The beans could also be dried in direct sunlight for a few hours or in a dehydrator.
- Once the beans are dried, break them up into small pieces.
- Place the broken up pieces into a coffee or herb grinder and grind for 30 - 45 seconds. Check to see how they are, and grind in short bursts until there are no more chunks.
- Store in an airtight container in a cool, dark place until ready to use.
- This recipe will make a few tablespoons of vanilla powder. Depending on how much powder you need, you can use more or less vanilla beans.
