 From the co-founders of Portland's Ground Up Nut Butters comes a book of delicious and easy-to-make nut butter recipes to incorporate into a healthy diet.

NUT BUTTER is a guide for those looking to make their own nut butters, as well as to incorporate more nut butter into your life in a healthy way. After making countless nut butters over the years, from some major hits (Cinnamon Snickerdoodle was a happy accident) to some, well…odder, concoctions (don’t ever make balsamic nut butter!), Julie and Carolyn share their wisdom so that you can make the perfect nut butter at home, too. All recipes will be peanut-free, gluten-free, dairy-free and refined sugar-free … but they’re so delicious that you wouldn’t even know it! You'll come away with the tools and know-how to make your own nut butters, as well as some helpful tips and recipes on how to use nut butters in your everyday cooking. But more than that, you'll feel less intimidated to start preparing healthy and delicious food. Food that fuels your body and makes you feel great!

About the Author

Carolyn is the creative mastermind behind Ground Up’s delicious and unique nut butter flavors. She has cultivated her cooking skills through her travels, food blog, and her work as a freelance recipe developer. But the most inspiration came when Carolyn was diagnosed with SIBO at 26 and was forced to vastly transform her diet to one free of any additives including sugar and oil. Her homemade nut butters became her “sweet treat” and soon friends began asking for it. Soon after she met Julie, Ground Up was born where Carolyn handles all marketing, social media, and product development. Carolyn has a business degree from Babson College and a background in online marketing and digital consulting.

Praise for Nut Butter: Over 50 Clean and Simple Recipes to Fuel a Healthy Lifestyle

“There's nothing better than curling up with a bowl of noodle soup, especially as the weather starts to cool. This recipe from Carolyn Cesario and Julie Sullivan's Nut Butter incorporates two unexpected yet complementary ingredients—miso and almond butter—for a luxuriously rich and creamy broth. The almond butter adds a nuttiness, balancing out the tangy miso, and elevates the soup to star-chef quality. Plus, the added nut butter provides plant-based protein and fiber to the meal, making it such an easy (and yummy) way to get your essential nutrients in for the day.” (MindBodyGreen)

“Profusely illustrated and comprised of fifty palate-pleasing, appetite-satisfying, kitchen cook-friendly recipes that celebrate and showcase nut butters, "Nut Butter: Over 50 Clean and Simple Recipes to Fuel a Healthy Lifestyle" is . . . unreservedly recommended as a unique and very special addition to personal, family, professional, and community library cookbook collections.” (The Midwest Book Review)
