Love any way on everything! Start my day with AB and oatmeal.
My homemade blueberry jam and AB on millet ( thanks to you), the best.
Ants on a log! I also like it microwaved with some butterscotch chips with graham crackers for dipping.
Love almond butter and strawberry preserves on a whole wheat tortilla.
Love love love to eat it on a spooooon!!!!!
Holy almond butter overload!! I love it straight up or plopped generously over oatmeal yummmm.
Yum, almond butter! *drool*
I could just eat it with a spoon, but I love almond butter spread on toast with jam or honey.
with honey on toast – yum!
Favorite way to eat almond butter: spoonful or raw ab + little bit of coconut oil melted + splash of maple syrup = yum (o:
I am actually on my first jar of almond butter, and i love it! I do not live in the healthiest of neighborhoods so it is hard to find “specialty” items like this:(
I did a post of my 9 favorite ways to eat almond butter. But my favorite?!?! Ah! Um. Jeez, this is really hard.I’m going to go with on top of oatmeal!
i luuurv starting my day with a big dollop of nut butter on cold overnight oats ๐
Either mixed into oatmeal or on my finger! ๐
I love it on waffles w/ banana slices!
I love to put a few globs of almond butter in a food processor w/ frozen bananas and make “ice cream.” So good!
in a smoothie or by the spoonful ๐
Any form in which its melted. Oats, toast…anything warm.
Oh in my almond butter choco chip cookie balls dunked in chocolate! perfection
Love almond butter on a banana as a sandwich!
My favorite use is in a Fitnessista breakfast cookie! Also, my 14-month old son loves almond butter and apricot preserve sandwiches. ๐
Slathered on dates!
Love almond butter added to a post workout smoothie.
Why oh whyyy did I have to be born allergic to most nuts? ๐
Oh man. Best use of almond butter is throwing a handful of craisins in the jar and letting them sink to the bottom, then trying to eat them by digging them out with a spoon. Classy, I know.
Ahh i must win haha! Nut butter AND home made fitnessista yummies?! SCORE.
My favorite use is out of the jar also haha
My fave is either your famous breakfast cookie, or spread on a piece of toast, pre-workout. It seriously gives me the best boost!
On a whole wheat tortilla with sliced banana! Yum!
almond butter + carrots = LUV ๐
Ooh, almond butter with dark chocolate chips and COOL WHIP! Yum!
My fav is warm on a slice of bread.
on toast always!
In the summertime I have frozen bananas dipped in almond butter and love it! It is delicious on super hot days.
I love almond butter in my oatmeal- a food blogger favorite!
AB + some sort of bread product + banana = puuurrrrfection
Straight out of the jar…sometimes using fingers instead of an utensil…gross i know.
I love almond butter with cherry preserves straight off the spoon!
Doesn’t get any better than right out of the jar on a spoon! Unless it’s melting in some hot oatmeal…yummmm!
I like almond butter with bananas!!!….There is something about the creaminess that is JUST RIGHT!
I love almond fingers! (yup…sticking the finger into the jar YUUMMM)
lately I’ve been loving honey wheat pretzels dipped in AB – delish! ๐
My favorite way to enjoy almond butter is to drizzle it over a sliced apple, delicious!
I LIIIVE for Maranatha! Fave use – in oats/oatbran or “straight up” (bread is overrated ;P).
izzyy
xxox
I just love putting it in oatmeal. Simply the best way to enjoy it ๐
almond butter is amazing dug right out of the jar with a big ol’ spoon!
Mmmmmm on top of pancakes or waffles and then topped with blueberries and strawberries! (I used to use PB until I discovered the awesomeness of AB!!!) Oh and of course straight out of the jar!
I love almond butter in oatmeal! That dark chocolate would be amazing in it ๐
Favorite way is a spoonful in my morning oats.
I love almond butter on an apple! yummmmmmmy!!
Oh, totally straight out of the jar or on an Ezekiel english muffin w/ banana & cinnamon! Yum
Woo Hoo, right out of the jar by the spoonful! And love to mix it in with a handful of dry cereal so it’s like a cereal nut butter ball!
Obviously, there’s no way I don’t enjoy my almond butter. And my fave way would also be straight outta the jar ( have you ever seen the episode of Friends where Joey is ‘helping’ pick out appetizers for Monica&Chandler’s wedding and he ends up adding ‘peanut butter fingers’ to the list, which he explains is simply wicking your finger in the jar and licking off the pb? Yeah, I’ve been guilty of some AB fingers myself…) BUT, since you already rolled that way, I’m gonna go with stuffed in dates, maybe with a few dark chocolate chips on top. Yummmmmmmmm :p
With apples and raisins! Or, on a sprouted bagel with jam. Also very delicious on pears, nothing else needed!
