Peanut Butter Powder

Discovered this at a friend’s house and was really impressed. I like peanut butter, but hate trying to clean out the jars. This powder eliminates that problem, plus less fat and more protein than traditional PB. doesn’t taste exactly like traditional peanut butter, but definitely good enough.

This product is really good! #peanutbutter taste with 87% fat! I added it to my protein shake to give it a nice PB flavor, and it was amazing. Haven't made it into a peanut butter paste yet though, but my husband did and said it worked really well! #peanutbutterlover #veganprotein

Not bad, but not exactly what I was expecting. I purchased this #protein-rich powder to add to my smoothies. Although I’m crazy about #peanutbutter, I dislike how the oil seizes up when mixed with frozen ingredients and was hoping that this might be the solution to my problems. Well, it is, and it isn’t. I guess when they remove the fat from the peanuts, a lot of the flavor goes with it, because it doesn’t exactly taste like peanut butter. I added quite a bit to my blender, but it seemed to be missing that rich, identifiable taste. It reminds me much more of kinako, the roasted soybean flour commonly used in desserts. I also tried the “low-fat peanut butter” recipe on the back of the jar (2 Tbsp powder + 1.5 Tbsp water) and I have to say, that was extremely underwhelming. #toohealthy In my opinion, the best ways to use this product are 1) in oatmeal, and 2) in a savory sauce. I’ve started mixing this powder into my overnight oats; it works well there, imparting a satisfying sweet-and-salty nuttiness. It also makes a pretty fantastic dressing for dishes like #peanut noodles or gado-gado! It resuspends nicely and isn’t heavy or hard to mix as regular peanut butter can be. I think this big jar was about $10-11 on sale at Safeway, which is sensible considering there’s quite a lot of servings per container. I probably would get it again: although somewhat lackluster when it comes to smoothies, this powder is definitely still useful, and I’ve enjoyed experimenting with new ways to incorporate it into my food.

On busy days I don’t have time to stop and sit for a lunch time meal or snack. I prefer something I can eat on the go and PB Fit Powdered Peanut Butter fits in perfectly. I can add it to a smoothie for extra protein to make it more filling which I love. I haven’t tried but you can also use it for travel/backpacking rehydrating it with water. Overall a top notch product in my book!

A yummy alternative to oil-heavy traditional peanut butter. I’m adding it into my peanut sauce spring roll bowls for lunches this week
