Recipes with Almond Butter

Almond butter has a more refined, slightly sweeter flavor than peanut butter, which makes it quite versatile in the kitchen — not just for breakfast, but for sauces, baking and hot drinks too.

1. Salad dressing. Thin a spoonful of GULIANI Almond Butter with warm water, add lemon juice, soy sauce and a little chili — you get a creamy, Asian-style dressing for vegetable salads.

2. Energy bites. Almond butter, rolled oats, chopped nuts and a bit of honey mixed together and rolled into small balls make a ready, portable snack for the whole week in the fridge.

3. Stirred into porridge. A spoonful of almond butter in oatmeal or buckwheat porridge adds fat and protein and gives the dish a more "nutty" flavor.

4. In a hot drink. A spoonful of almond butter stirred into hot chocolate or coffee adds a creamy texture and extra nutritional value — especially handy in the colder months.
