Make the most of a jar of almond butter with our recipes for dark chocolate bark, breakfast smoothies, muffins and flapjacks

Looking for almond butter recipes? Drizzle a spoonful of your favourite almond butter over porridge, blitz into healthy breakfast smoothies or even use as an egg replacement in vegan flapjacks.

Almond butter is great for adding extra protein to recipes, helping you feel fuller for longer, as well as a distinctive slightly sweet and nutty flavour. Compared to peanut butter, almond butter contains more vitamins (such as vitamin E), minerals (including iron) and fibre. Choose a good-quality nut butter that doesn't contain added sugars or unnecessary oils.

Try our bakes, treats and drinks made with almond butter, then discover healthy breakfast ideas, healthy vegetarian recipes and healthy baking recipes.
