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!
¼ cup JUSTIN’S® Cinnamon Almond Butter
¼ cup Butter, softened
½ cup Brown Sugar
¼ cup Sugar
1 Egg
½ teaspoon Vanilla Extract
¼ teaspoon Almond Extract
¼ teaspoon Salt
½ teaspoon Baking Powder
1 cup All-Purpose Flour
1 ½ cups Granola
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
3. In a large bowl with an electric mixer, beat together the JUSTIN’S® Cinnamon Almond Butter, butter and sugars.
4. Add the egg and beat well.
5. Stir in the vanilla and almond extracts.
6. Add the flour, baking powder, and salt, and mix until just combined.
7. Stir in the granola.
8. Using a small scoop or tablespoon, scoop the cookie dough onto prepared baking sheets.
9. Bake at 350°F for 8-10 minutes. Cool completely.
I love finding new ways to get in a little extra protein. These Peanut Butter + Chocolate Chip Protein Pancakes are a sweet way to do just that. These pancakes use JUSTIN’S® Classic Peanut Butter and your favorite protein powder to make sure you have enough energy to start your day right.
Smoky, savory, delicious flavor doesn’t need to take all day. Sometimes it’s as simple as combining high-quality ingredients and just enjoying the result. Almond Butter Romesco is a perfect example of that kind of dish. All you need to do is blend roasted red peppers, sun-dried tomatoes, almond butter, and other delicious ingredients together and enjoy with toasts, chicken, or vegetables.
Have you ever taken a bite of a gingerbread cookie and thought to yourself, “How do I make this into a pancake?” If you haven’t you don’t have to, I’ve already thought of that for you. If you have, you’re welcome. These Gingerbread Almond Butter Pancakes are made with JUSTIN’S® Maple Almond Butter, and crazy delicious!
I would say something like “Enjoy the taste of childhood PB&J with this Peanut Butter & Jelly Smoothie,” but that would imply that adults don’t eat PB&J sandwiches. That is not true at all for this adult. If you love Peanut Butter & Jelly just as much as me, then you will like this smoothie.

Remember when your mom would tell you not to eat all the cookie dough? Well, I created these Cookie Dough Protein Balls just so you could! The best part is they’re made with JUSTIN’S® Vanilla Almond Butter and full of protein. So you actually should eat all of these. These are great for kids’ snacks, after a workout, or anytime you pass by them in your kitchen.
Movie night is one of my favorite nights of the week. Finding something to stream online with my friends and family is a great way to connect with loved ones. It doesn’t beat trips to the video store, but those don’t exist anymore. To make up for it, I came up with a recipe for Honey Almond Buttered Popcorn. It’s made with JUSTIN’S® Honey Almond Butter and is tasty sweet treat.
What’s more American than apple pie? Baseball, maybe. This recipe for Maple Almond Butter Apple Pie takes the great American classic and knocks it into the outfield. It’s made with JUSTIN’S® Maple Almond Butter so you know it’s great. And the crowd is going wild!
I have always believed that simple foods are the best foods. With just three ingredients you can make something wonderful. JUSTIN’S® Classic Peanut Butter is the star of these Classic Peanut Butter Cookies. No need to mess with a good thing. Simple.
Roasted Almond Butter and Maple Glazed Tofu, Squash, and Brussels is a genuine triple threat. This dinner delight is vegetarian, full of flavor, and cooks in one pan. It doesn’t take your whole day to prepare either. At any given moment, you are thirty minutes of marinating, a few minutes of tossing ingredients together, and thirty minutes of hands-off roasting away from enjoying a flavor-packed, wholesome, vegetarian meal. Seriously. There’s really no downside to this recipe.
