Did you know there’s pumpkins in the jungle? Maple Pumpkin Monkey Bread is a delicious pull-apart treat that’s so sweet, you’ll forget where you are! I make it with maple syrup, pumpkin puree, and JUSTIN’S® Maple Almond Butter for a delicious dessert that works any night of the week.

Nut Butter Cup Dipped Pretzels on a black cooling tray on white parchment on a black tray on a white background

Pretzel rhymes with wrestle, as in, “I’ll wrestle you for one of these Nut Butter Cup Dipped Pretzels”. That’s what my daughter said to me last time I made a batch of these. I’ve combined the saltiness of pretzels with the sweetness of my famous nut butter cups and voila! I present to you one of the greatest snacks ever invented.

 

Chocolate Hazelnut and Almond Dessert Hummus on a clear glass with strawberries in the background

I was recently informed that eating JUSTIN’S® Chocolate Hazelnut and Almond Butter straight out of the jar with a spoon is “not ideal for sharing.” Bold of them to assume I wanted to share. If I did want to share, I would whip up this Chocolate Hazelnut and Almond Dessert Hummus. It’s easy to make, delicious, and perfect for a crowd.
