Diary of a Semi-Health Nut

ramblings + recipes of a semi-healthy nut

Hi! I’m Amanda.

I’m a writer, chocolate chip cookie baker, blog designer, power walker, Instagram fiend, peanut butter toast lover and copious coffee drinker living in Nebraska with my husband and three cats. (also a fan of a good run-on sentence)

Honey Roasted Almond Butter + Some News!

May 6, 2015 by Amanda R DeWitt

make your very own almond butter all drippy and delicious. via @semihealthnut at semihealthyblog.com 2

This homemade honey roasted almond butter is slightly honey sweet and dreamy creamy goodness on your morning toast. I’m pretty sure this stuff disappeared in 4 days flat. And Dave barely had a taste of it…it was just this nut butter monster slathering it on toast, tortillas, a cookie (ohmigosh)…really anything.
