PB2 Powdered Peanut Butter Original
Do you love the taste of peanuts but want to consume less fat and fewer calories? Then peanut butter powder from PB2 is a convenient choice. It is made from roasted peanuts that are pressed to remove most of the oil. What remains is a fine powder with plenty of protein and the familiar peanut flavor. You decide what to do with it: spread it, stir it in, or bake with it.
The difference with regular peanut butter
Regular peanut butter consists of about half fat. This is due to the natural oil in the peanut. With PB2, that oil is largely pressed out before the peanuts are ground into powder. The result: up to 90% less fat than traditional peanut butter and almost 70% fewer calories. Per 13-gram serving, you get only 1.5 grams of fat and 60 calories. The taste remains recognizably peanut, only the heavy layer of fat disappears. What many people do not know: pressing mainly changes the amount of oil, not the peanut flavor itself.
6 grams of protein per serving
Peanuts are naturally full of protein, and because only the oil is removed, that protein is actually preserved. Per 13-gram serving, you get 6 grams of plant-based protein, which is about 46 grams per 100 grams. This makes this powder a source of protein. For comparison: a 13-gram serving contains about as much protein as an egg. Proteins contribute to an increase in muscle mass and proteins contribute to the maintenance of muscle mass. Proteins also contribute to the maintenance of normal bones. In addition to protein, a serving also provides 1 gram of fiber.
How to use peanut butter powder
The powdered form makes this product versatile. Do you want a spreadable paste? Mix two tablespoons with a little water and within half a minute you have something that resembles regular peanut butter. Many people prefer to stir it dry into their oatmeal, cottage cheese, or yogurt, or mix it into a smoothie or protein shake. And when baking, it gives pancakes, muffins, and cakes a mild peanut flavor without adding much fat. A practical tip: add the water little by little, then you can keep the texture exactly as you want it.
For athletes and those watching their fat intake
This powder is popular with athletes and people who watch their calories. The difference lies in the ratio: lots of peanut flavor and protein, little fat. Good to know: the unsaturated fats in regular peanuts are perfectly fine on their own, but those who want to consume less fat can use peanut butter powder. This way, you can still enjoy that flavor. The product contains only three ingredients, is completely plant-based, and is naturally gluten-free. In practice, that means a simple peanut butter powder that fits into almost any recipe, from breakfast to dessert. With a 454-gram jar, you will also have it for a long time, and thanks to the powdered form, the product stays well preserved as long as you store it dry. This way, you always have a high-protein peanut flavor within reach.
