Why do you use almond butter?

There are a few reasons to use almond butter instead of peanut butter.

First off, almonds usually are processed with less pesticides than peanuts.

Almonds are actually a nut, where as peanuts are a legume (say that 10x without laughing – I dare you, haha!)

Almond butter is slightly healthier than peanut butter because it has more vitamins, minerals, and fiber. 

Now, if you don’t have almond butter, you can use peanut butter as a substitute.

    • Hey Christine! I’ve never tried to calculate this one and I tend not to suggest people count carbs and calories but try to make healthier decisions in general, although I know many people like to calculate exactly!

      If you decide to do a calc for yourself using the ingredients I’d love to hear what you come up with!

      Thanks for being part of our community!
