Happy Canada Day!
What's that, eh?
Maple Peanut Butter?!
Yes, please!
Skippy with honey is sooo overrated, this is the new spread in town.
It has more flavor, more nutrients, and of course, more Canadian spirit ;)
Warning: this is incredibly addicting!
I think it goes without saying that this spread was short-lived...
"Canadian" Maple Peanut Butter Spread:
(makes ~3/4 cup)
128g (1/2 cup) Natural Peanut Butter (no sugar/salt/oil added)
84g (1/4 cup) Pure Maple Syrup
1/4 tsp Maple Extract (optional)
2 tbs Vanilla Protein Powder
1/16 tsp Salt
Directions:
1. In a medium-sized bowl, add the peanut butter and maple syrup (and extract if you like) and stir.
2. Stir in the protein powder one tablespoon at a time, and serve!
Cover and refrigerate to store.
This spread is a healthy and delicious replacement for storebought peanut butters that are often loaded with refined sugars and hydrogenated oils. Natural peanut butter, pure maple syrup and some vanilla protein powder create the smoothest spread of all, with incredible taste. This is a snack that loves you back!
as soon as i saw canadian i knew it would involve maple! yummy!

I love maple...such an underused ingredient!
ReplyDeleteThis looks SO good! I've been mixing PB & organic, grade B maple syrup (from Trader Joe's) together for awhile, but never thought to add protein powder. If you like coconut - PB, maple syrup & unsweetened coconut make an outstanding combination!
ReplyDeleteMmm. Mm mm mm. You always know how to hook me into clicking from foodgawker, and I'm never disappointed!
ReplyDeleteFabulous idea, way to integrate maple with peanut butter. Maple is so delicious!
