27 ways with peanut butter
Hello, my name is Izzy and I am addicted to peanut butter. I don’t often go a day without it and if I do the cravings are almost uncontrollable. I refer to the snacking as my ‘daily dose of peanut butter’ as if it were vitamin C.
Creamy, rich, salty with a slight sweetness and full of crunchy bites of peanut – what’s not to love? It is SO much more than just another forgotten spread in your cupboard. First things first, it shouldn’t be in the cupboard long enough to forget about. Secondly, you’d be surprised how many ways you can enjoy the peanut goodness. If there’s a recipe with it in, I’ve probably tried it.
If you, like me, think that peanut butter is about as good as it gets then I am here to take you on a journey through the many ways that you can enjoy it. Get ready for the peanut butter ride of your life, here are 27 of my favourite ways from around the web.
