A baking butter swap that adds nutty richness to your recipes

To easily spread nut butter into your favorite baked goods, start by selecting the nut butter of your choice, making sure it is smooth and well blended. For every cup of butter in your recipe, replace it with 1/2 cup butter and 1/2 cup nut butter. This ratio ensures that you retain the essential qualities of the butter while delivering the nutty flavour. Next, cream the butter, sugar, and nut butter together until smooth and fluffy. This initial step ensures even distribution of flavors and creates a base for your other ingredients.

Continue to follow your recipe as usual, adding the remaining ingredients, such as flour, eggs, and leavening agents. Depending on the sweetness of your chosen nut butter, you may need to adjust the sugar in your recipe. Taste the dough and add more sugar if desired. Bake your desserts according to your recipe instructions. You’ll find that nut butter imparts a subtle nutty scent to your kitchen while turning your baked goods perfectly brown.

Results? Baked goods feature an elevated flavor profile, combining the best of both worlds – the familiar comfort of butter and the rich, nutty essence of nut butter. Whether it’s peanut butter chocolate chip cookies, almond butter cookies, or cashew butter cookies, your creations will be a delightful surprise to your taste buds.
