Oatmeal Craisin Snack Bars Recipe

Fresh butter has a new, simple recipe in I Can't Believe It's Not Butter!®. The original packaging has been given a makeover, but what's inside has been tweaked as well. You know that you're a baker if you get excited about butter, right?

The new I Can't Believe It's Not Butter is creamy and delicious as well as being incredibly versatile enough to use in everything from on toast (straight out of the fridge, no need to wait for the spread to soften), to making your eggs extra fluffy, to vegetables and of course, desserts!

It can be used for spreading, topping, sauteing, cooking or baking - like in this Oatmeal Craisin Bars recipe I made last week!

The new buttery spread is made of a blend of oils, purified water, and a pinch of salt. I appreciate being able to pronounce everything on the label, but even more so, I enjoy the taste! It's important to have a simple recipe, but it has to taste good.

This new I Can't Believe It's Not Butter recipe is offered in the Original, Light, and Olive Oil varieties. It's entirely free of artificial preservatives, the blend of oils are plant-based, and is a fantastic source of both monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids and omega-3 ALA!

Unilever spreads like I Can't Believe It's Not Butter provide good fats while containing 0g trans fat per serving, no cholesterol and no partially hydrogenated vegetable oils. The new spread boasts 40% fewer calories and 70% less saturated fat than butter, so it's a great healthy alternative when a recipe calls for butter.
