Recipes using peanut butter
I probably eat peanut butter every day. I know my dogs do - our sweet elderly dachshund Rosemary begins each day with a nut butter coated pill. This means that Dutch also gets a peanut butter filled kong.
A small amount of unsweetened peanut butter is a good snack for dogs, and a great vehicle for hiding their medicine.
Turns out, we love peanut butter too, seeing how many nut butter recipes we have made over the years. Among these are reader favorites that are made often, like peanut butter bread, peanut butter fruit rolls, and peanut butter bars. Which recipe will you make first?

So I made the chickpea cookies. I took many a liberty due to ingredients on hand. I used the following ingredients: chickpeas, navy beans, spelt flour, agave, tahini, chia, unsweetened coconut, raisins, vanilla extract and salt. I baked them at 350 for 12 minutes. I must say that they taste so much better today than they did last night. I've eaten 6 today. I'm addicted. Thank you for sharing!
spabettie says
yay! I love the variety of ingredients you used - and glad you like them! why didn't they taste as good at first? chickpea cookies are an obsession of mine...
Allie says
So sorry to hear about life's stumbling blocks 🙁 But if peanut butter can't make everything just a little bit better, well, I don't know what will! I love love your African peanut soup, and yup, I definitely want to make everything else listed here. Except the dog treats--but only because I don't have a dog.
spabettie says
thank you, Allie. and yep, peanut butter CAN help most any situation, or at least comfort us? 🙂 that African peanut soup is our favorite too... I need to make it soon. and honestly? I ate one of the dog treats... 😉 they were pretty bland, but... GOOD. 🙂

Natasha, your comments mean so much to me and really make me smile. Really. I can generally only retain one joke at a time, so perhaps I will have to write some down... 🙂 we gave him a hand massage just the other day - your thoughts are timely!
thank you, I appreciate you my friend! <3
Natasha says
Ditto! Hey - if one of us wanted to send you a treat - what should we do??
Holy crap - you also have "Ican'tretainajoketosavemylife" syndrome? I also can't deliver one either! LOL!
Mwaaaaah to you and Basil - and huge energy waves to your papa.
spabettie says
a treat?? 😀 really? I could give you my address, I love treats!
YES I suffer from that syndrome!! I have no idea why, I can tell a story with the best of them. over and over, in fact. I will be one of those little old ladies on a porch rocker, spinning yarns (not the knitting variety!) but won't be able to tell jokes... 😉
thank you - Basil sends wag wag wags right back, hugs from me and Dad is certainly receiving the energy! I am heading up there now, and will be taking this smile on my face to deliver to him! 🙂
Natasha says
🙂 I will drop you an email and we can do the addy thing there!
Happy day....
Natasha says
I asked for knitting needles for Christmas and I SUCK! - I just know all is going to be good - I feel it in "me" bones!
