Add 1 cup of raw slivered almonds and 2 cups of cold water to a small stockpot. Heat to a boil, then simmer the almonds for 15 minutes. Drain, rinse and set aside.
Add the remaining ingredients, plus the reserved blanched almonds to a food processor. Puree until smooth, about 1-2 minutes.
Spoon the dip into a bowl, garnish with pumpkin seeds and serve with your favorite tortilla chips or raw veggies. Enjoy!
