  • 1/3 cup melted butter or avocado oil
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 1/4 cups maple sugar
  • 1 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 2 tablespoons Justin’s Cinnamon Almond Butter

  2. Beat together the butter or oil, eggs, sugar, applesauce, almond butter, vanilla, cinnamon, salt, and baking powder. Stir in the flour until just combined.
  3. Pour about 1/4 cup batter into the doughnut pans so it’s nearly to the top.

If you know anything about me, you know that I love food. I love to cook. Love to eat. The whole shebang. One of my favorites to make for friends is this recipe Chicken with Savory Almond Butter Sauce. I make the sauce with JUSTIN’S® Classic Almond Butter, sliced mushrooms, and shallots—which are like garlicky onions. It gives it an amazing flavor that everyone at your party is sure to remember.

This is usually where I’d make a clever joke about rabbits, but when it comes to my Cinnamon Almond Carrot Cake Muffins, I don’t mess around. Trust me, the joke I had was good. Real good. Make sure you hurry to the grocery store and get everything you need—don’t forget JUSTIN’S® Cinnamon Almond Butter. Okay, I didn’t really have a joke. I couldn’t think of anything.
