Almond butter is a great alternative to peanut butter, and offers nutrient-rich flavor and a healthy serving of protein. Most are low-carb and gluten-free making it a great option for those with allergies. However, there are a lot of options on the market. Consider the following before you make a purchase:
What To Make With Almond Butter
Consider how you are going to eat your almond butter, or what you are planning to make. While most almond butters should be stored in the refrigerator, this can make the texture firm and hard to spread. Make sure to stir the butter before you use. Look for an almond butter made with blanched almonds for a creamier texture.
If you are adding to sauces or dipping veggies into your almond butter, you may want something that is less gritty. However if you are adding to smoothies or spreading on apples, the grittiness might not be an issue.
Almond butter can be used in a variety of ways, and easily adds protein and flavor to some of your favorite snacks. From pancakes to frozen banana almond butter bites to smoothies and more– the flavor and recipe combinations are endless!
Ingredients
If you have any allergies, make sure to read the ingredients before you purchase. While most almond butters do not contain peanuts, some are made in facilities that contain peanuts, and there is risk for contamination– especially important to know if you have a peanut allergy.
Flavor
There is a lot of variety in flavor options for almond butter. The classic almond butter will be the most mild– but consider trying different flavors if you are looking for a stronger taste that you can eat right out of the jar.
Quantity
Consider purchasing almond butter that is offered in small 10 ounce pouches if you want to try a small amount before committing to an entire jar. This is also a great way to have a healthy, protein packed on-the-go snack.
