5 MUST TRY almond butter recipes.

After creating Eats by Cede, I took a little rest from recipe experimentation and testing… and have neglected to get back into it. My goal is to regularly share tips, recipes, and ideas for using your almond butter but the business life sometimes gets in the way of creating those things for you. SO. I’ve decided to create a small list of almond butter recipes that I’ve gathered that you MUST try.

These are simple, sweet recipes that I got from some pretty awesome food bloggers, and I HIGHLY suggest trying them if you can.
