*National Almond Day may have been two days ago but there’s still time to enter to win an almond prize pack.* I get asked a lot whether almond flour can be used in a recipe in place of almond meal and vice versa. I’ve never found much of a difference when baking with either one….

Almond Butter Fudge + Giveaway
It’s no surprise that I’m a fan of almonds in all form on this blog, whether its almond butter, almond flour or just almonds. I’m still trying to wrap my mind around where the milk comes from though. The Almond Board of California alerted me that tomorrow, February 16th, is National Almond Day and what…
Iced Vanilla-Almond Butter Cookies
I never understood why Christmas cookies are a thing, why cookies take priority over cake or mousse or any other number of desserts. But in reality who ever has time to sit down for desserts around Christmastime? Between cooking, opening presents, and talking everyone is usually standing or in the other room, and cookies are…
Maple Almond Butter Sandwich Cookies
Sandwich Cookies are so much fun. They’re much better than any old cookie; you get two cookies plus a filling. What’s not to love? My favorite sandwich cookies were always the ones shaped like a maple leaf with a maple crème filling. Sure, they probably were loaded with trans fat and gave people heart attacks…
Spiced Almond Butter Cookies
I love almond butter. I like it even more than peanut butter most of the time. But I don’t buy it nearly as often because it’s over twice the price. That just isn’t fair, is it? These cookies were worth the splurge. The nice thing about almond butter is that the flavor is simple and…
Chocolate Almond Granola Bars
I’ve never had much luck making granola bars until now. They usually turn out caky or crumbly and never hold together; I was just about ready to give up on making granola bars. This recipe has completely changed that around for me. Not only are these delicious and gluten-free, they’re also no-bake and come together…
Honey Almond Macaroons
Cookie recipes can be hard sometimes. You need to preheat the oven, mix the ingredients in a certain order, chill and slice the dough sometimes—it’s usually more work than I want to do for a quick sweet fix. I love macaroons since they’re about as easy a cookie as you can make and still have…
Raw Salted Almond Brownies
The last time I made raw brownies, I didn’t share the recipe. I wasn’t planning on it this time, either, but these came out so well I felt I’d be holding out if I didn’t share them. These almonds from Trader Joe’s are incredibly addicting; I’m pretty sure they’re all gone by now. Anything with…
Chocolate Mint Almond Butter
Have you tried Justin’s chocolate almond butter? Don’t because you might never want to eat anything else. It’s really terrific. I just love the combination of chocolate and almonds; I figured this could only be made better with mint, and I think I was right. This is another super easy do-it-yourself gift for foodies(vegan and…
Paleo Mug Cakes
You’re going to want to bookmark this one; trust me. I never understood the appeal of mug cakes before recently. It seemed to me that if you wanted something chocolate and delicious you should put in the time and effort to bake some almond flour brownies and the extra hour would be well worth it….
