Sweet Bean Butter

Hey Everyone!! Today I discovered a new butter to love. When you hear the ingredients, your going to think what the heck? But Its so good!! I probably consume more PB, Almond Butter, White chocolate, Dark Chocolate in one day then recommended.. But I made this sweet bean butter with Peanut butter and Garbanzo beans.. Surprisingly, the bean and the nut....(I know.. weird..) They mix well and taste delicious!!!  The beans add extra fiber and protein to your peanut butter.. so you got a win-win!! Don't knock it till you try it!!

..SWEET BEAN BUTTER..
muscle-buildin buttah!

Ingredients


  • 1 cup of Garbanzo beans
  • 1/3 cup Natural Peanut Butter 
  • 1/3 C. Agave Nectar
  • 1 tbs pure maple syrup 
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 C Chocolate chips 65% or more cocoa.



HOW TO MAKE:

Mix the first five ingredients in your food processor until smooth.

smooth and creamy

Transfer into a container and stir in chocolate chips! 

saved for lata..

Use as desired!! Spread on bread, rice cakes, dip cinnamon crackers in it or just eat it with a spoon. Finger works very well also......... Its so easy to make!!! 

I love it on toast!! 


Yummy!

ENJOY!!
