Our friends at Sunbutter had the brilliant idea of collecting recipes from none other then their own fans and even created the Peanut Free and Tree Nut Free Fan Favorite Recipes Book out of the recipes collected.

Below is one of our favorite recipes from the book, the Sunbutter Monster Cookie recipe.  You and your kids can get as creative as you want throwing in whatever allergy friendly goodies that pleases you, hence the name “Monster” cookie.  If this recipe doesn’t look fun and kid inspired, then we don’t know what is!
