Best Ever Almond Butter and a GIVEAWAY!

I recently made the greatest discovery and have to share it with you all!  My church has an annual Holiday Gift Show in November attended by tons of vendors with all sorts of great gift items.  I always love going to look for some creative gift ideas.  This year I happened upon the booth of NaturAlmond Almond Butter and it now has a prime spot in my pantry.  I bought one jar the day I went to the Gift Fair.  When I got home I tasted it and had to go right back the very next day and buy several more jars!  Let me say I have always been a huge fan of peanut butter and one of those that will stick  my spoon right into the jar.  I’ve ventured from peanut butter to almond butter but don’t have the same love for the almond butter . . . until now.  This NatuAlmond butter is the most delicious spread you can imagine!  It has this wonderful, fresh, creamy taste and smoothy texture.  I also LOVE that there is no separation of oil on the top, so no need to stir it before spreading.  Another thing I love is the list of ingredients:  Roasted Almonds, Sea Salt.  That’s it! You know exactly what you are eating!

Jaime, the owner, explained to me that the recipe is from her grandfather who made this almond butter for years and passed it down to his grandaughter.  Jaime began making the almond butter in her kitchen, until it became necessary to find a commercial kitchen to produce even more batches.  The almonds are slow roasted and mixed in small batches to keep the flavors just right.

Check out their website herehttp://www.naturalmond.com/about_us.html and twitter @NaturAlmond.  You can purchase directly from them or find them at some local places here in Atlanta.  

I’ve been enjoying this on Ezekiel bread or on a banana for a snack.
