Happy National Peanut Butter Day!
I am writing to you from my couch to wish you a a wonderful day dedicated to this addictive and delicious food! Why my couch? Well, let’s see…Monday was CrossFit, Tuesday 90 second running intervals along the indoor track, and this morning another indoor track for a 45 minute run!
Needless to say, my body is screaming at me! I have muscles that I didn’t even know existed that ache, but I feel GREAT! Welcome back to strength training. I wasn’t able to fit another CrossFit or Hot Yoga into my schedule this week, but I more than made up for it with running.
So…back to the real reason for this post…Peanut Butter!

What is your favorite peanut butter recipe?
Thank you so much for the shoutout! You are so sweet to include me! One quick thing- it’s Modern Girl Nutrition not Modern Nutrition Girl🙂 All of these recipes sound amazing- especially that PB banana french toast sandwich!
Oh my gosh…I totally know that and appreciate the correction. I will fix it immediately! At the end of the day and almost end of of the week, my brain is so fried. So sorry! Love the recipe and all of your awesome ideas. Happy PB Day!
No worries!! It’s a confusing name haha. Thanks- you too!
I have eaten soo much PB today, before I even realized it was PB day! HA!
I actually didn’t have any…ha ha! But I forgot how much I love that PB and Banana French Toast Sandwich. I might be making that this weekend : )
Gotta love that feeling of “I didn’t even know that muscle existed”! 🙂 Great recipe round-up. Happy Friday!!
Yes! It was great and I am able to move so much better today. Luckily Friday is a rest day and then I will get back into things this weekend. Hope you find something new to try!
thanks for linking up to my s’mores puppy chow! I ate a ton of peanut butter yesterday to celebrate. in the form of cookies.🙂
PB cookies are a true classic. I am so interested in that s’mores puppy chow. I can’t wait to make it!
Homemade peanut butter is the best!! I totally missed national pb day😦
It is never too late to celebrate!
I may or may not have just dug into the jar with a spoon last night hahaha
I love that…with a few chocolate chips of course : )
Although recently I have been digging coconut with my PB and AB and I never even used to like coconut.
I love pb! Homemade is the best! And all those yummy recipes . . . I need to make some pb so I can bake with it🙂
My cookies that I made with the homemade PB were amazing. I bought the honey roasted peanuts so it was so flavorful! Happy Baking!
I love all these peanut butter recipes! Yum!! Thinking that white chocolate puppy chow might have to make an appearance soon🙂
It is amazing and addictive! I highly recommend freezing it because it tastes great straight out of the freezer. Every time I make it and bring it to a friends there are NO leftovers!
Pb blondies are making me swoon! Too bad I’m on a diet!
Right! That’s always a bummer! Luckily I allow a little red wine on my diet to enjoy while looking at PB pictures.
[…] strength training. And when the temperatures dropped below my comfort zone, I found myself an indoor track. Actually two indoor tracks. One near work that is new, 3 lanes and free. The other is 5 […]
I love all things peanut butter! Great collection of PB recipes! I’ve never made my own… gotta get a food processor!
Yes! I use mine ALL the time for hummus, energy bars, and peanut butter. You will love it. Check out Craig’s list…I feel like that is something people buy and don’t use so you can benefit from that : )
Ooo… great idea! I never thought of looking on Craigslist. Thanks!
Holy peanut butter batman! Look at your mass collection of recipes; now that’s impressive!
He he!
Thank you! I did pick up some peanuts at the store with homemade peanut butter on the brain. I love that stuff!
