I love to throw parties for friends and family. Sometimes they get a little crazy and we have to tell Grandma to stop dancing on the table. But, when she gets a hold of these almond coco-nutty buddies, it’s really hard to get her to stop. With JUSTIN’S® Classic Almond Butter packed into every bite, it’s hard to blame her. Get down from there, Grandma. You’re going to break something.

Great Summer Recipes
Spicy Peanut Sauce used to dip dumplings being held with brown wooden chopsticks on a white background

I can’t get enough of this Spicy Peanut Sauce. Fresh ginger, garlic, and of course, JUSTIN’S® Honey Peanut Butter. It’s so good I could drink it right from the bowl. Of course, I’d never do that. Maybe.

Aside from making delicious nut butters, baking is one of my favorite pastimes. However, sometimes I just want the great taste of something baked without breaking a sweat in the kitchen. My No-Bake Almond Butter & Jelly Breakfast Squares take all of the bold flavors of JUSTIN’S® Classic Almond Butter and your favorite kind of jelly without any of the heat! Did I mention they’re also gluten-free?
