National Peanut Butter Lover’s Day

It is March 1st, which means that it is National Peanut Butter Lover’s Day!

I know what you’re all thinking, “aren’t you allergic to peanut butter?” Correct! I am allergic to peanuts, and all nuts for that matter. I wanted to do a post on this holiday for all the peanut-free folks out there who have felt left out by the vast amount of recipes that call for peanut butter and people who gush over how great peanut butter is.

As a toast to National Peanut Butter Lover’s Day, I am sharing with you all my recipe for Homemade Sunbutter. Sunbutter is an excellent alternative to peanut butter, and I’ve heard from sources that it tastes extremely similar. It also works as a perfect substitute in recipes that may call for peanut butter.

I love putting sunbutter on my waffles and protein pancakes, or a spoonful in my oatmeal. Sometimes, I just eat it by itself during a moment of weakness. Whichever way you choose, I hope you enjoy celebrating National Peanut Butter Lover’s Day by trying some homemade sunbutter and getting to experience the hype of peanut butter that everyone has always talked about. Enjoy!
