Have you ever heard of Sunbutter? I have had a lot of people asking me if I have recipes for nut free treats, so I was thrilled to receive a free sample of SunButter®. It is a great tasting alternative to peanut butter. A seed butter that is made in the USA from specially roasted sunflower seeds, SunButter® products are completely peanut-free, tree-nut free, and gluten-free. The sunflower seed spread products are all processed in a peanut-free and tree-nut free facility, making them an excellent choice for people with peanut allergies or gluten intolerance.
I decided to make cookies with this butter. It is naturally gluten free and required no flour to bind. Great for Valentines day!
