Good peanut butter recipe that is crunchy, a little sweet, and a little salty.
Packed with nutrients, high protein, and crunchy from the seeds, this nut butter snack recipe is very satisfying in the mouth as well as in the stomach. Since it can be made as little salty or as little sweet as wanted, you can really customize it into a healthy snack according to your preferences.
Packs really nicely for picnics, work, or travel!
This simple vegetarian or vegan snack also makes for a really good picnic food idea! It is easy to pack both the nut butter and the crackers separately. So the next time you're looking for picnic food recipes, or work snacks, consider this simple addition!
Substitutions:
I'm allergic to nuts! No problem, you can use sunflower butter instead!
Note about using maple syrup:Â You should store it in the fridge if you use maple syrup because it may eventually start to mold.
Money Saving Tip |
Many seeds, especially sesame seeds, are cheaper from Asian grocery stores or stores with bulk sections. |
Let's Begin:
Gather ingredients. The particular mix of seeds doesn't much matter. The mouthfeel of the crunch is definitely better if you use at least three different varieties, but otherwise go crazy!
Add your seeds to the nut butter and mix thoroughly.
If it is too thick you can add 2 to 3 tsp of neutral flavored or peanut oil. Then you can add 2 to 3 tsp of sweetener to taste.
Enjoy!

Storage.
Put it into a jar (such as an old peanut butter jar) and store it in your pantry. It will be good for 1-2 months. If you used maple syrup you will either need to be sure you use it quickly or it should be stored in the fridge, as it may start to mold eventually.
