Almond butter is better for you than PB - as posted here a zillion
times, I make mine with 6 parts almonds, 1 part peanuts, and 1 part
cashews, and everybody loves it. The bit of peanuts and cashews is
enough for taste, and all I do is add olive (non-EV) or coconut oil or
some mix of both until it's the right consistency.
I've made it with added salt and added sweetner but it doesn't need
either but unless you've got a big sweet tooth or are addicted to salt,
you don't need either. Mine works great in any sort of PB&J, also great
as a dip with celery, also great if you add a little more oil to it then
mix it with diced fruit in a bowl and eat it with a spoon.
