The two best parts of Thanksgiving are a great meal and getting all your loved ones together. The next best part is Thanksgiving leftovers. I’m surely thankful for this Turkey, Kale and Brussels Salad with Almond Butter Tahini.

When I want to impress family or guests in the morning, I always make sure to whip up a batch of my favorite almond butter cinnamon rolls. The smell wafts through the house and wakes everyone up in a great mood. It’s a nut buttery twist on the classic breakfast pastry, made with JUSTIN’S® Cinnamon Almond Butter. It’s a favorite in my house and it’s sure to be one in yours, too!

 

Chocolate Peanut Butter and Banana Oatmeal Cookie Bars on parchment papers on a black rectangular tray on a white background

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. Plus, these could not be any easier to make. You only need one bowl and no crazy ingredients. The hardest part of making these cookie bars will be waiting for them to cool.

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.

 

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.
