These almond butter recipes are perfect any time you have a jar of almond butter sitting in your cupboard and no idea how to use it.

For me, almond butter used to be such an impulse buy… I’d pick up a jar at Whole Foods or Trader Joes, but when it came to using it, I would always choose peanut butter instead. For sandwiches or eating by the spoonful, I just somehow preferred the taste and texture of peanut butter. However, I’ve recently started to discover recipes where almond butter is not only as good a choice as peanut butter, it’s actually sometimes even a better choice due to its neutral flavor that won’t overpower baked goods where you might not want a peanut butter taste.

    Love these ideas as I am such a fan of almond butter! Definitely going to try it in banana nice cream as I don’t really like the taste of banana. Also, I adore it on top of overnight oats that already have some almond extract mixed in.
