Don’t Buy Nut Butter Anymore

Hi foodie, Happy New Year! 🎉

I hope you had a wonderful holiday season and enjoyed good food, family time, and a little rest.

As we step into the new year, I’ll be sharing more healthy-leaning recipes (but not only!) simple, nourishing dishes you can easily make at home. And to kick things off, I want to start with a true kitchen staple that many of us use all the time:

Homemade nut butters: from peanut to almond, hazelnut, pistachio, and more.

They’re easier to make than you think, often healthier than store-bought, and in many cases, cheaper too. Later in this email, I’ll also share a few delicious ideas and recipes for how to use nut butter in breakfasts, snacks, desserts, and meal-prep dishes.

Homemade Peanut Butter

Creamy, drippy, and naturally rich — perfect for toast, smoothies, cookies, or savory sauces. No additives, no preservatives, just pure peanut flavor.

Homemade Almond Butter

Deeply roasted, slightly toasty, and wonderfully smooth. A great alternative to peanut butter and amazing in oatmeal, energy balls, and healthy desserts.

Homemade Hazelnut Butter

Naturally sweet with a warm, nutty aroma — great on toast, in baking, or as a base for homemade chocolate-hazelnut spreads.

Homemade Pistachio Butter

Unique, luxurious, and full of pistachio flavor. Perfect for desserts, frosting, spreading on toast — or just eating with a spoon (no judgment!).

How to Use Nut Butter — Ideas & Recipe Inspiration

Nut butter is one of those ingredients that works in so many different recipes — from breakfast to desserts, snacks, and even savory dishes. Here are a few delicious ways to use it, along with recipe ideas from my blog:

🌞 Breakfast & Healthy Starts

• Swirl into oatmeal or overnight oats — try my
Pistachio Overnight Oats (great with pistachio butter)
• Add a spoonful on top of
Healthy Cottage Cheese Pancakes
• Drizzle over yogurt bowls or granola
• Blend into smoothies for extra creaminess & protein — like my
Strawberry Cottage Cheese Smoothie

🥪 Snacks & Light Bites

• Spread on toast, pita, or rice cakes
• Serve with apples, bananas, or dates
• Mix into energy-balls
• Add to smoothie bowls for richness and flavor

🍰 Desserts, Baking & Sweet Treats

• Add to healthy dessert - such as my healthy chocolate peanut butter bars
• For pistachio lovers — it works beautifully in recipes like my Pistachio Cheesecake and Pistachio Lava Cake

Nut butter adds richness, nuttiness, and a boost of healthy fats, whether you’re making something sweet, wholesome, or indulgent.
