Granola is nutritious and good for you, but can be hard to start eating as part of a consistent diet. So, I’ve decided to kick up the flavor by adding my JUSTIN’S® Cinnamon Almond Butter—turning plain old ‘groan’-ola into tasty almond butter granola cookies!

Great Summer Recipes
Baked Cinnamon Almond Butter Churro Doughnuts with cinnamon sticks in the background on a white background

I’m a sucker for a great doughnut, but sometimes I want to eat a whole dozen of them. My doctor tells me that eating that much fried dough isn’t good for me, but I’ve found a loophole. My Baked Cinnamon Almond Butter “Churro” Doughnuts are baked not fried. You still probably shouldn’t eat a dozen of them by yourself though.

 

Almond Butter Gingerbread Cookies in snowflake shape on parchment paper in a pan on a white background

Gingerbread is one of my favorite types of bread. It’s really more of a cookie, who knew? Well, as soon as I learned that, I found a way to incorporate my JUSTIN’S® Classic Almond Butter (regular or Maple flavor if you’re feeling extra funky) into a classic holiday recipe. Whip up a batch today and impress all of your holiday guests or bring home the holiday flavor to any time of year.

 

Nutty Miso Salmon in a black stone bowl (close up shot)

Say goodbye to the same-old-salmon. This Nutty Miso Salmon is about to become your new favorite way to prepare your favorite fish. Who knew you could create flavor this delicious with only a handful of ingredients and a few minutes under the broiler? Well, I guess we did. But now I’m sharing it with you! Forgive me?

Peanut Butter Banana S'mores Bars stacked on top of each other with chocolate chips on a white top with a blue background

You didn’t think I’d give you a s’mores recipe without putting my own spin on it did you? This is a classic with a sweet twist. This recipe uses JUSTIN’S® Mini Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups in place of the milk-chocolate bar, and real cookie dough instead of crackers. How delicious does that sound? I should warn you though, these can get messy and are addicting. But mostly just addicting.
