INGREDIENTS

2/3 cup packed light brown sugar

1/3 cup maple syrup

2 tablespoons JUSTIN’S® Maple Almond Butter

1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 large egg, as room temp

1 1/2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon salt

DIRECTIONS

  1. Roll the pie dough about ⅛-inch thick. Using a 4-inch-diameter cookie cutter, cut 12 dough circles (rerolling the scraps as needed). Gently press one dough circle into each cavity of a 12-cup muffin pan. Chill the pan in the freezer for 20-30 minutes.
  2. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Whisk together the sugar, maple syrup, Maple Almond Butter, and butter in a mixing bowl. Whisk in the egg, vinegar, vanilla, and salt.
  3. Use a ladle or ¼-cup measuring cup, divide the filling evenly between the shells.
  4. Bake 15-18 minutes, until the filling bubbles and darkens somewhat.
  5. Transfer the pan to a rack and cool 5 minutes, then carefully run a butter knife around the edge to loosen each tart. Let the tarts cool in the pan, then remove. Store in a single layer in an air-tight container in the refrigerator until ready to serve. When ready to serve, bring them to room temperature and enjoy!

Cinnamon Almond Swirl Banana Bread on a white plate with silver cutlery on a white background

It’s a fact that there is no such thing as bad banana bread. All banana bread is a gift. However, there is such a thing as “the world’s most perfect and delicious banana bread,” and it’s my recipe for Cinnamon Almond Swirl Banana Bread. It’s official. I have a certificate and everything. Granted, I made the certificate myself…but I’m pretty sure that anybody who tastes this banana bread will agree with me.

You know it is the simple things in life that bring the most joy. That’s why I love Peanut Butter Pretzel Balls. Just three simple ingredients to bring a little joy to those taste buds.
