Peanut butter lover’s day. It’s a thing.
Move over birthdays, move over anniversaries, move over christmas day. This month we celebrated one of the most important days of the year (to us) Peanut butter lover’s day. Peanut butter is truly the perfect food. This month, on March the first we honoured all that perfection with a day dedicated to all the lover’s of peanut butter! We love all our nut butters, however our natural crunchy peanut butter will always hold a special place in our heart. It can be salted, unsalted, spooned or spread. It is a healthy, tasty snack but also super indulgent. You can enjoy it sweet, but also savoury - with every meal and everything in between. Peanut butter waffles, pancakes, muffins, espresso martinis, you name it, we’ve thought of it.
Here at 99th Monkey HQ you bet we celebrated national peanut butter lover’s day in true company style. We thought we’d spread the love and it was only fair that we shared one of our top recipes as voted in the office.
Que: Triple peanut butter muffins.
Think: Fluffy, light muffins filled with smoothie, oozing, warm peanut butter and topped with - you guessed it peanut butter mousse.
The best part is, these muffins are vegan, dairy free and refined sugar free and can even be made gluten free if desired! So you can enjoy these every single day of the year (even though every day is peanut butter day if we’ll be honest). Let’s get stuck into it.
