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.

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.

We did it, we combined everyone’s favorite flavors into one perfect cookie bar. Chocolate? Check. Peanut Butter? That too. Banana? You know it. Oatmeal? Obviously.
