I’m baaaaaaaaack! And with something totally fun and awesome and kid-friendly and husband-friendly. Peanut butter maple syrup. As in, peanut butter mixed with maple syrup, all ready to pour over waffles and pancakes. Or ice cream. Or cake. Or salad, if you’re kinky. Whatever, no judgement.
I know I’ve been gone for a long time. But work is crazy, life is crazy, and I’m trying to balance it all with renovating parts of our house little by little. There have also been some “family emergencies” mixed in that weren’t so pleasant, and some not so great news as well as some awesome news. We’re all okay, so don’t worry or be concerned. Just the usual life kinda stuff interrupting my blogging reverie!
*sigh* No excuses. You can stop playing the violin for me now, I know I should be posting more. But honestly, I haven’t really even been cooking much lately. That will change I promise- our garden is in full swing and it’s time for jams and pickles and goodies!
So… this is not my idea. I got this idea from Jess Seinfeld (yes, Jerry’s wife) on Instagram. However I thought it was brilliant, and that it could be adapted to anything. Like, for example, mix some strawberry jam with maple syrup and butter and you have strawberry maple syrup! GENIUS.
You can also use ANY KIND OF NUT BUTTER. Sunflower, almond, peanut, pistachio (is that a thing?), whatever. Whatever floats your boat.
All you have to do is gather up:
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter or coconut butter
- 1 heaping tablespoon peanut butter (or other butter)
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
Melt the butter over low heat. Add the nut butter, whisking the entire time, then pour in the maple syrup. Whisk like crazy until it’s all combined and smooth. Pour in a jar, or right over your pancakes.
Isn’t it so gorgeous???
Like I said, the same principle applies to any kind of jam or butter product. Even a fruit butter, I’m sure, like apple butter or pumpkin butter would work. Think of how a blueberry maple syrup would be! GAH!
I bet.. and this is me just being wild ‘n’ crazy here… you could make peanut butter and jelly maple syrup. Wow. I just blew my own mind.
I’ll be back soon with more recipes- including more yummy stuff involving Rainier cherries! And other super cool stuff. I promise. I never lie to you, do I?
In the meantime, go have some fun with your nut butters. Heh.

I’m gone to say to my little brother, that he should also visit
this blog on regular basis to get updated from most up-to-date news update.
I have been surfing on-line more than three hours
lately, yet I by no means found any interesting article like yours.
It’s lovely worth sufficient for me. In my view, if all website owners and bloggers
made good content as you probably did, the internet will probably be a lot more helpful than ever before.
Currently it seems like WordPress is the preferred blogging platform available right now.
(from what I’ve read) Is that what you are
using on your blog?
I like what you guys are up too. This sort of clever work and reporting!
Keep up the great works guys I’ve added you guys to blogroll.
Good day very nice blog!! Guy .. Excellent .. Amazing ..
I will bookmark your web site and take the feeds also…I’m
happy to search out numerous helpful info right here in the put up, we
want develop extra strategies on this regard, thanks for sharing.
Highly descriptive article, I enjoyed that a
lot. Will there be a part 2?
Thanks very interesting blog!
Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied on the video to
make your point. You obviously know what youre talking about, why waste your intelligence on just posting videos to your weblog
when you could be giving us something informative to read?
Hello, you used to write fantastic, but the last few posts have been kinda boring…
I miss your tremendous writings. Past few posts are just
a little out of track! come on!
Nice post. I was checking continuously this weblog and I am
impressed! Extremely useful info particularly the ultimate phase :
) I deal with such information a lot. I was seeking this certain info
for a long time. Thank you and best of luck.
After I initially left a comment I appear to have clicked the -Notify me when new
comments are added- checkbox and now every time a
comment is added I get four emails with the exact same comment.
Is there an easy method you can remove me from that service?
Appreciate it!
Yes! Finally someone writes about rated tourist sites.
Good day! I know this is kind of off topic but I was wondering which blog platform
are you using for this website? I’m getting tired of WordPress because I’ve
had problems with hackers and I’m looking at alternatives for another platform.
I would be fantastic if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.
continuously i used to read smaller posts that also clear their motive, and that is also happening with this piece of writing which I am
reading at this time.
Ridiculous story there. What happened after? Thanks!
It’s remarkable for me to have a site, which is useful in favor of my experience.
thanks admin
This piece of writing offers clear idea for the new users of blogging, that actually
how to do blogging and site-building.
With havin so much written content do you ever run into
any issues of plagorism or copyright violation? My website has a lot of exclusive content I’ve
either created myself or outsourced but it looks like
a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my permission. Do you know any methods
to help stop content from being ripped off? I’d definitely appreciate it.
Keep on working, great job!
