Maranatha was so kind to send me some almond butter to *review* on the blog, even though we all know how much I love it. I love all almond butter- I don’t discriminate 😉 They also sent sunflower seed butter and Dark Chocolate Peanut spread (which looks like frosting, which is ok with me) 😀

Almond butter on a banana with chocolate chips!
Mixed into greek yogurt with graham crackers, raisins and bananas!
Oh boy, the chocolate almond butter is my fave! I love to top it on my oatmeal : )
I usually put some nuts in my cereal for more staying power, but lately I’ve been loving a spoonful of almond butter. Sounds weird, but it’s so good!
I love almond butter on a sandwich thin with sliced bananas!!!
Aaaaah this is pretty much the best giveaway ever! My favorite use for AB is on whole wheat toast with raspberry jam on top. It’s my go-to snack.
Seriously… same as you. I eat it with a spoon.
I also like to put it on my dates (HAHA the fruit, not the boys). 😉
Well, besides on a spoon I love to stuff it into dates–so so good!
in oatmeal with banana and cinnamon! or on an apple with cinnamon, OR in banana soft serve :]
nut butter<333
Sadly, I’ve never tried almond butter. Peanut butter is the one food that I dislike, but I’ve always wanted to try other nut butters in the hopes that I could find one I actually enjoy. So give me the coupons! 😉
As boring as it is, I love it on oatmeal. So yummy.
On top of protein pancakes 🙂
OMG, this is one of the best giveaways I’ve EVER seen! You know how expensive almond butter can add up to be 😉
My current fave is a tablespoon of almond butter on top of a hot (microwaved) chocolate VitaMuffin, all topped with a few tablespoons of plain Greek yogurt that’s been sweetened with a little Truvia, cinnamon & vanilla extract. The textures and different temperatures are to die for 😛
Mixed with ICE CREAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😀
I love a big blob of almond butter in my smoothie-in-a-bowl’s. It gets slightly hard so I can dig into it with every bite. Delicious!
I absolutely LOVE almond butter. I add it to my oatmeal each morning (along with mashed bananas…yum!!), and I add it to greek yogurt with berries as a snack. I also eating dates with almond butter (I dunk them straight into the jar.) SO good!!!
The almond butter/banana combo is always yummy! This giveaway is awesome, btw.
I like my almond butter on toast with jam and on bananas. yum!
Pretzels dipped in almond butter!
love it simple – on some great hearty toast!
My fav way is to eat almond butter is in the Fitnessista breakfast cookie!
I haven’t tried a lot of almond butter, and of the almond that I have tried, I haven’t really enjoyed it. They didn’t really have a lot in Germany to choose from, but I’m willing to give it another try. People keep raving about it, and I want to see what all the hype is about! I would put it on just about anything as I do with pb!
I love to use it as a topping on ANYTHING; toast, oats, yogurt, etc.
I love Almond Butter on Millet Bread and straight out of the jar is always classy too hehe
drizzled on a fresh banana… simple & delish!!
I would say my favorite use for Almond butter (at the moment) is to make quinoa balls with it!! Recipe found at this blog: http://www.savvyeat.com/breakfast-quinoa-on-the-go/
Yumm!!
I love almond butter mixed in my oatmeal with strawberries (fresh or frozen, but frozen mixes in more and gives you an extra yum flavor combo).
I also LOVE almond butter in a Breakfast Cookie!!!!!!
OH ALMOND BUTTER! On ANYTHING: toast, oats, ice cream, bananas, out of the jar, I could go on and on…
I use it in and on anything and everything.
on top of my perfect protein pancakes!
my favorite is on top of my oats in the morning with some jam and banana…YUM!!!! Also, ontop of a pile of fruit with a small handful of cereal for some added crunch…I LOVE ALMOND BUTTER
um…on everything! If I did have to narrow it down, I think I’d say oatmeal, especially when I make overnight oats or a breakfast cookie 😛
I’m with you, Gina! Straight out of the jar is my favorite because, unfortunately, almond butter never lasts long enough to make it into any of my recipes! Thanks for hosting such a great giveaway 🙂
LOVE almond butter with anything… but mainly on top of oats or mixed with Greek yogurt!
I love my almond butter on waffles with maple syrup! Yum!
I love almond butter smeared on a banana for a snack!
Anyway is best! Straight from the jar, on a chocolate vitatop, with greek yogurt, in a smoothie, with a banana, with jelly, mixed in ice cream/frozen yogurt, with protein ice cream, on a graham cracker, really anyway! It is so delicious!!
My (new) favorite use for almond butter– make an egg white “pancake” with almond extract, 3 egg whites, and cinnamon. Then, spread with almond butter and drizzle with a little maple syrup! SO good! and good protein too!!! 🙂 My bday is the 18th and I wanna win some yummies!!!!
my favorite way to eat almond butter is on a banana with honey! yummmm!! 🙂
Almond butter+raspberry jam on top of buckwheat pancakes=happiness
I like smearing almond butter on toast and putting honey on it! Delish! 😉
I love apples dipped in almond butter!
i am obsessed with almond butter! i even got my dad hooked on it. my favorite way to eat almond butter is with waffles, berries and yogurt! DELISH!!!
i love almond butter! i usually make protein ice cream and swirl it in with some bloobs OR mix in some cocoa powder to make a decadent fudge-like treat straight off the spoon 😀 i made my own “larabars” today! cocoa mole & cashew cookie and i made huge bars for $6 so i saved some cash money as well!
Pumpkin-banana smoothies with almond butter in the mix are pretty amazing:)
I love almond butter with oatmeal… or with whole wheat chocolate chip pancakes!
I like my almond butter in my oats and of course like you right out of the jar sometimes too!
