Protein Fix – Blueberry SunButter Spread

SunButter welcomes new partner blog, Mom versus Food Allergy!   We are thrilled to share Rachel’s delicious SunButter Spread recipe. 

Allergy-Friendly Blueberry SunButter Spread

I was making pancakes last week sometime, and Superman requested blueberry pancakes.  I immediately thought, “Oh, I should make blueberry syrup.”  My next thought was, “How am I gonna add some protein to breakfast?”  On mornings that we have pancakes, I usually let the kids scoop a spoonful of SunButter straight from the jar and they eat it off of the spoon.  That gets boring, so I decided to make a blueberry syrup with SunButter in it.  On a whim of creativity, I created a super delicious batch of what my husband named Sunberry Spread.

How do you eat Sunberry Spread?

-on toast or a biscuit

-on pancakes

-on waffles (my favorite so far!)

-mixed in oatmeal

-in place of jelly on a SB&J sandwich

-on a spoon (I’ve been guilty of this too many times)

-in a smoothie

-on cottage cheese (if no dairy allergy)

-mixed in dairy free yogurt

-in homemade pop tarts (this I MUST do!)

The best part of this spread is that it is Top 8 Free!
