I am so sorry it has been a while since I posted about my recent peanut butter adventures the holidays made time fly by, but I plan on posting a review at least once a month.

SO here we are! A new flavor to chat about! If you couldn't tell from my last few reviews I am on a Buff Bake Brand kick! Mainly because their nut butters are delicious and have good quality ingredients, in my opinion. 

This flavor confused me a little bit because I am not sure where the "cookie" piece came into play. It didn't really taste like a cookie nor did it have chunks of cookies in it or anything of that nature. To me, it tasted like chocolate almond butter, which isn't a bad thing! But again, I didn't really taste/understand the cookie component of this almond butter. 

Also, this almond butter was a little bit thicker than the other flavors I have had. Now that could be because I let it sit in my pantry for a little while before I opened it. I mean I had like 3 other jars of peanut butter open! So once I did open it the oils and almond butter separated (Which says so on their container!) so much that I had to blend it to make it smooth again. I think the texture was fine, not too creamy, but not too rich, so the flavor thing could be my fault that I let it sit too long.

However, I did learn throughout this that a good rule of thumb is if you're having a hard time mixing a jar of nut butter throw it in a blender/nutrabullet/Ninja for a few pulses and it will blend it together for you perfectly!

Like I said this tasted a little more chocolaty to me so it wasn't one of those nut butters I put on everything. Here is what I DID put it on:

• A blob in the center of my oatmeal (So good!)
• A topping on my yogurt
• Banana bread
• Rice Cakes
• Straight from the jar when I had a sweet tooth

This cookie almond butter was REALLY GOOD for curbing any sweet tooth I had. Also, occasionally I would mix 1/2 tbsp of this almond butter with 1/2 tbsp of another kind of peanut butter, like creamy Jiff PB, and the nut butter swirl would be DELICIOUS! If you don't mix your nut butter together I would definitely give it a try!

Have you tried this flavor? If you have, let me know how you like it! Happy Nut Butter Eating!

Cinnamon Roll Protein Peanut Butter Spread

My Review: Buff Bake Cinnamon Roll Protein Peanut Butter Spread

Review: Loved this flavor!
Rating: A
Tasting Notes: It's a cinnamon roll in a jar, perfect flavor combination, not overly cinnamon

Thanks for joining me as I rate my second peanut butter spread! If you missed my first review of another Buff Bake classic (snickerdoodle), check it out here.

This peanut butter spread caught my attention because of its name, I mean HELLLLOOOO it's called "cinnamon roll!" Who doesn't love a good cinnamon roll? The one thing that did catch me off guard is the little pieces of raisins in it, but it did not hinder the taste is any way. 

If I had a sweet tooth I ate a spoonful of this peanut butter and it did the trick! I also swirled it on a piece of toast with pumpkin cream cheese, OMG! It's so good you need to try it. Don't give me that judgy face---can't knock it until you try it!

Also, I loved the added protein in it and that I could enjoy it without the guilt of all the extra calories a normal cinnamon roll! 


So onto the good part! What should you pair this peanut butter with?!

 1) A dollop on yogurt

 2) Layered with banana on top of pancakes

 3) Toast

 4) Add 1-2 tbsp into a smoothie

 5) Overnight Oats


Lets just say if I got a jar of this for my birthday, I wouldn't be mad. :-) 

Have a funky, delicious peanut/almond/pecan spread you think I should try? Tell me below and I will add it to my list! I am always on the lookout for a new flavor to add to my pantry.
