Almond (Peanut) Butter and Smashed Berries


Ok. We start simple. This is one of my favorite breakfasts...and it is super easy and quick!

Though I have primarily switched to Almond Butter (and freshly made - no additives)...you can also do this, of course, with Peanut Butter - which I also get freshly made. 

For the LOCALS - I get this freshly made at Nature's Pantry in Fishkill.

Ingredients:

  • 2 tbsp fresh Almond (or Peanut) Butter
  • 1 cup fresh fruit (Blue-Black-Rasp-berries are my fav combo)
  • 1 slice Eziekel Bread (or 1/2 Eziekel English Muffin)
  • 1/4 tsp Cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp Chia Seeds
Directions:
  • Mash berries in a bowl to make a 'jam/jelly' without adding anything to it
  • Toast bread
  • Spread nut butter over your toast
  • Sprinkle cinnamon over nut butter 
  • Spread 'jam' next
  • Sprinkle chia seeds over jam
Eat & Enjoy!

Here's my tip for you that I learned...Nut Butters you buy in the store are usually made with added ingredients...likely hydrogenated oils like palm or canola (which are not good for you at all)...extra salt and sugar. Try to get something that is a one ingredient nut butter. Read your labels. 👊

This is the brand of sprouted grain bread (Ezekiel) that I use:
