Just not a fan of the two textures together. I can't stand peanut butter, but I love almonds, so I tried almond butter and not shockingly, I do like it. I like it with strawberries. Maybe I could dip them in it? Is there anything else? Would it be good on graham crackers with honey or something?

    Apples,
    pretzels,
    Celery,
    Mixed in smoothies or yogurt,
    Graham crackers/cookies
    Waffles/pancakes
    Bananas
    Strawberries sound really good, actually.

    On apples, or alone on a spoon with honey and cinnamon on top. Mmmmm...I had to stop buying it for a while!

    Half an avocado + cocoa powder + almond butter. Whoosh them together in a blender. Set in the fridge. Best dessert ever. :#

    My sister stands at the counter with the jar of almond butter, a spoon, and a banana. She uses the spoon to put the almond butter on the end of the banana and takes a bite. Probably not the most calorie-friendly way to do it.

    By the spoonful, carefully weighed of course. ;)

    On noodles, like peanut noodles. Or make a salad dressing.

    Definitely apples and bananas as previously posted. Also in smoothies, and a little nut butter spread on a medjool date, I go crazy for!! Topped with a few dark chocolate chips makes a super nutrient dense dessert!

    With a spoon?

    Melt a few chocolate chips in and dip fruit in it. Cheap, less calorie laden nutella (okay, and almond vs hazelnuts, which is a plus to me).

    Coco Lite pop cakes are good, too, if you just want a neutral thing to carry the almond butter. About the size of a small tortilla, crunchy, more like an airy cracker in texture (not Styrofoam-y like rice cakes can be), and 20 calories. ( cocofoods.com/ ). I use them under my peanut butter.

    For about an extra 60 calories on top of that, small Ezekiel tortillas are good, too, if you like whole grain things that are less bread-textured.
