To lighten the load I mix it at least 50/50 with fat free plain* yogurt. I like Stonyfields Organic.
A quarter cup of the yogurt, a quarter cup (or less) of almond butter, a few generous shakes of ground cinnamon, stir vigorously and serve. The addition of yogurt makes the almond butter a light and fluffy delight. I use it as a dip for apple slices, on top of sliced bananas and pineapple chunks and, of course, chocolate.
*I like the tang of the plain yogurt, but if you'd like a sweeter topping/dip, vanilla yogurt could be just the thing.
P.S. I found the MaraNatha Almond Butter at a Whole Foods store, but I see you can order it from directly their website and maybe save a bit of $$.
Stumble It!

Wow, someone posted a recipe, and it's one I can actually eat!
I don't find almond butter all that expensive. And it's not bad on the calories when you think about all the healthy fatty proteiny goodness, right? Where are you getting yours?
I bought mine at a Whole Foods store. I see you can also order it directly from MaraNatha. The link is in my post.
