Since peanuts are a no go and aren't actually nuts, I had to turn to other means to quelch my cravings. One of them is sunflower seed butter, which is packed with healthy fats. Of course you can buy this in the stores but it is so expensive!!! I can make a huge jar for only $2 which is a quarter of the store price. That is totally worth it when you are on a tight budget. Another plus is this tastes so much better than store bought because it is fresh.
Ingredients:
- Roasted sunflower seeds (I used the 1 lb bag from Trader Joe's)
- 1 Tbsp coconut oil
Directions:
- Pour the bag of seeds and the coconut oil into a high speed blender and blend until smooth. You may need to scrape down the sides a few times. Yes it is that easy!
* You can get super creative and add in stevia and cacao for an indulgent chocolate treat but beware, it is addictive!
