When you’re used to seeing the grocery store shelves lined with jars, cans, and boxes labeled with lots of ingredients you can barely read, it can be hard to imagine organic nut butter with only one ingredient. Yes, that’s right! Organic nut butter only needs one ingredient to make them irresistible. And that ingredient is nuts – brought directly to you, courtesy of Mother Nature!
Did you know that USDA law requires nuts like almonds and cashews to be pasteurized or heated before they can hit the grocery store shelves, and before they’re used in any non-organic nut butter? More often than not, any nut butter that you purchase which is not organic will contain pesticides or other harmful or toxic ingredients because of the way they’re processed before they are added to butter.
Nuts, especially almonds, contain high quantities of natural oil, which gives them a super absorbency. This means pesticides and chemicals used in the growing and pasteurization process easily absorb into the nut and into your system when you eat them. This is why purchasing organic nut butter, like Maisie Jane’s, is so important. You can eat that spoonful of butter feeling safe and knowing that all you are eating is organic nuts!
You heard it right the first time. When you taste the creamy deliciousness of Maisie Jane’s nut butter, whether it’s the crunchy almond and cashew butter or the ultra-smooth versions, you’ll taste pure simple goodness grown right in California. Organic nut butter is a safe and healthy option to non-organic nut butter because you know exactly what you’re getting in every spoonful!
Non-organic nut butter contains a few more ingredients than the organic kind. When reading the labels, you’ll find that non-organic butter usually includes added salt, sugar, oils, and often other preservatives. Organic Maisie Jane’s California Sunshine nut butter contains no added salt, no added oils, no added sugar, and absolutely no preservatives.
It’s important to mention the distinction between Maisie Jane’s natural nut butters and organic nut butters. All our nut butters contain nuthin’ but nuts, but the components of our certified organic goods are carefully produced and stored separately from our natural products. We are inspected annually by CCOF, recognized as an organic certifying authority by the USDA Organic standards.
If you suffer from common food allergies, you can trust in Maisie Jane’s because our line of organic premium nut butter’s is vegan and wheat free. That means there isn’t any dairy or gluten to get in the way. They’re also NON-GMO verified, kosher certified, and certified organic by the USDA. Using 100% dry-roasted cashews, almonds, and hazelnuts you’ll never find that Maisie Jane’s nut butters are too oily or too grainy.
Our one ingredient nut butters, whether crunchy or smooth, are easy to spread and awesome additions to any recipe. Almond and cashews are full-bodied and rich, yet their delicate flavors overwhelm your senses as the creamy goodness melts on your tongue.
Organic almond butter is one of the most popular butters, and you can easily see why. Not only does it taste great when you spread it on your toast or use it in place of the more common peanut butter with your favorite sweet jam (and have you ever tried it in a chocolate shake—YES Chocolate almond shake, delish) but it’s full of heart-healthy nutrients, antioxidants, and energy inducing qualities. Almonds are an excellent source of Vitamin E and magnesium and contain more protein than any other nut. That means almond butter is loaded with 3 grams of protein per tablespoon and as much protein as 1 egg, or 6 grams, per ounce.
Naturally gluten free, Maisie Jane’s almond butter is the perfect nut butter to keep your diet, weight, and waist in check. That’s because almonds are loaded with fiber, which keeps you feeling fuller longer. One tablespoon of almond nut butter contains 2 grams of fiber. You can have a spoonful between meals to tide you over and, with Maisie Jane’s, not have to worry about adding any excess sugar into your diet.
