This deliciously and naturally sweet papaya butter adds flavor and probiotics to pancakes, oatmeal, and toast. Enjoy it straight off the spoon too! Fermented fruit purees of all kinds are a staple in our home.

I typically have two or even three seasonal favorites in the refrigerator at all times to use as a probiotic condiment for soaked pancakes , sprouted waffles , overnight oatmeal …or straight off the spoon in the afternoon �

Probiotically enhanced papaya puree is one of my favorites to make when the mildly sweet, fleshy fruit is in season in our community from May to September.

If you do not live in a tropical climate or it is off season, simply use dried papaya with no added sugar or preservatives or fresh papaya you’ve dehydrated yourself for year-round enjoyment!

Other probiotic purees our family regularly enjoys are: Cultured date paste

Fermented apricot butter

Probiotic mango butter
