HOMEMADE HONEY-SUNFLOWER BUTTER
Can you believe this creamy sunflower butter is made with just ONE ingredient? It's a fabulous substitute for peanut butter, and the best part is, it's done in less than 10 minutes. Please note I used a Vitamix® and cannot guarantee the same results with a different brand.
