Seed butter is difficult to come by in the supermarkets, and it’s nearly impossible to find one that tastes great.
This is a delicious nut-free substitute for nut butters in smoothies, as a condiment or binding agent in some gluten free baking. This is also a great lunchbox snack or spread, as it is school friendly. I hope you enjoy it!
