Well, any recipe that involves peanut butter is good by me!This recipe is nice because it isn’t too heavy on the peanut butter so you get that nice nutty flavor without it being too rich. I didn’t have any flax seeds on hand so I made some alterations to the original recipe but they still turned out great. They’re a great way to kick off your day!
