Natural Sunflower Butter, a Tasty Alternative to Peanut Butter
Missing out on that robust nutty flavor you crave because you're allergic to
peanuts, or just looking for a healthier alternative? Try sunflower butter! It has a
rich, nutty taste and a creamy texture, and is nutritionally superior to peanut
butter—with higher amounts of vitamin E and thiamine, 30% less saturated fat,
and double the fiber. And, it contains no hydrogenated oil or trans fatty acid.
And there's no worry about aflatoxin, a mycotoxin that is a natural contaminant of
certain agricultural products such as peanuts. We've tried substituting almond
butter in the past to cut back on peanut butter consumption, but the taste was
really not the same, whereas sunflower butter comes pretty darn close. The one
from Swanson is unsalted, so we like to sprinkle on some crystal salt —not
only to add to the nutritional value, but it also makes it taste even more like
peanut butter. If you haven't tried this healthy alternative yet, why not give it a
try?!
