Cashew-Coffee Bread Pudding & Artisana Nut Butter Giveaway

Welcome to the Virtual Potluck’s latest party! Our special guest for this party is Artisana, a company that creates raw and organic nut butters, as well as some delicious roasted butters and great coconut oils and butters.

Artisana focuses on creating nut butters by preserving their full health benefits and flavor. They are made in a temperature controlled room, where the best nuts are processed to make the butters. What distinguishes them is not only their quality, but their variety of butters that include everything from Macadamia to Walnut, and beyond! Oh, and did I mention that the nuts used are sourced 100% organic and raw? The temperature control rooms make it so the nut butters are blended carefully and never go over certain temperatures. They also don’t add anything extra to the butters; no oils, salt, flavorings, or preservatives are added, making it a fantastic product when you’re wanting to take care of your health. And talking about health, nuts are certainly one of the best sources of vitamins and minerals, and even energy! Need more? Here are some added bonuses:

  • Non-animal proteins and enzymes
  • Vitamins and Minerals
  • Essential fatty-acids (including Omega-3, of which Walnut butter has the most)
  • Fiber in all products more readily digestible than whole nuts…making them truly whole foods.
  • Certified Kosher (KSA)

*Note: You can either add finely ground coffee to the bread crumbs, or do as I did and throw some bread chunks into your coffee grinder. Not only will you end up with coffee scented bread crumbs, but your coffee grinder will be clean! See this post on Facebook for the how-to picture.

  26. ohgoodgolly cashews are my weakness so I definitely would love to try their Organic Raw Cashew Butter.
    ..I must admit though, I’m thoroughly intrigued by the Sattva Cashew Butter, so that one would follow very closely after the Raw Cashew Butter! 😉

    Your bread pudding looks pretty darn good. I don’t drink coffee but I love the flavor. I have started using espresso powder in my brownies and cookies, oh what a difference it makes.
