The possibilities are endless! Here are some of our favorite ways to enjoy them: on toast, in a smoothie, in oatmeal or yogurt, with an apple or banana, or by the spoonful. You can also incorporate them into baked goods or savory recipes! Find inspiration on our recipe blog or Instagram.

Since many of our nut butters contain coconut, they can harden when kept in cooler temperatures. We recommend warming it to get it to a stirrable consistency. To warm it, we suggest a few things:

• • • Heat the entire jar up in the microwave for 20 seconds or so, until you see the oils start to release and it gets more liquid-y. (You can also just heat a small portion in a bowl, your call!)
    •  
    • Place the entire jar in a bowl of warm water for a bit so that it can liquify more.
    • Store it in a warm place such as near the stove or a heater to avoid having to do this every time!

In our nut butters that contain coconut or cocoa butter, the oils in the nut butter can naturally separate and harden on top. They also get hard when stored in cooler temperatures. Those white spots you see are actually solidified coconut oil or cocoa butter. If you are unable to stir it and get it to a desirable consistency, it is best to warm it up. Look above for instructions on how to warm up your nut butter!

Because we don’t use any palm oil, hydrogenated oils, or other preservatives, separation between the oil and the nut butter will naturally occur. Simply give it a good stir and enjoy!

Our nut butters have a shelf life of one year. The Best By date can be found on the bottom of the jar.

Once opened, they do not need to be refrigerated. (In fact, our flavors with coconut will harden if they’re stored in the fridge, so we don’t recommend it!)

Oh no! That unfortunately can happen from time to time. Please send us an email at customercare@grounduppdx.com and we’ll assist you.

We release a new limited-edition flavor every month. Stay tuned via our email list and on social media to make sure you get access to our new flavors!

We ensure that every product that leaves our warehouse has at least a 60-day shelf life remaining. We try to ship you the freshest product we have available to ensure it's the best-tasting nut butter you've ever enjoyed!

All Ground Up nut butters are made in a peanut-free, dairy-free, gluten-free and soy-free facility. The only one of the top allergens we handle is, of course, Tree Nuts.

Yes, they are 100% gluten-free, and there is no chance for contamination.

All of our ingredients are plant-based except for honey, which we use to sweeten some of our nut butter flavors. We have 3 core flavors that are 100% vegan and do not contain honey: Classic Smooth, Triple Nut Crunch, and Maple Cookie. Often our seasonal flavors are vegan, as well!

You can find the nutritional information for each product on its product page under the "Nutrition" sub-heading (as well as on the back of the jar).

Yes, all of our nuts are dry roasted.

Many of our ingredients are locally grown, pesticide-free, and sourced from organic farms. However, at this time, we are unable to source 100% organically grown materials to make our product. We put a lot of love and care into every jar we create, and therefore into every ingredient that goes into it.

Yes, all of our core products are non-GMO certified!

You can find our products in many stores across the U.S., including Sprouts, Whole Foods (in select regions) and Target (in select regions). Check out all the stores that carry our products on our Find Us in Stores page.

Yes! Our Flavor of the Month Club is a monthly subscription where you get first access to our seasonal flavors—before they're released to the public! Every month, you'll get 2 jars of nut butter delivered straight to your door: one seasonal flavor (always a surprise!) and one flavor from our classic lineup (of your choosing).

Of course! You can choose from our 3-Month or 12-Month Prepaid Subscriptions.

If you have a Monthly Subscription, yes! You can cancel or pause your subscription at any time by logging into your subscription portal. You can also change the classic flavor that is getting delivered with your order, and you can even add additional items on to your order!

If you have a Prepaid Subscription, we unfortunately cannot make changes to your subscription.

Shipping is included in the pre-paid subscriptions (and you're getting a discount on shipping by paying up-front, instead of paying an additional $8 each month!). For our monthly subscription, shipping is not included and you will be charged an additional $8 each month.
