As dietitians, a significant and frequent part of our job involves performing dietary recalls. During these recalls we’ve certainly noticed that peanut butter is one of the most commonly consumed spreads/condiments - and with good reason because it’s freaking delicious!
However, given the high palatability of peanut butter combined with being one of the most energy-dense, low volume foods on the planet... individuals will often majorly underestimate and underreport their true portion sizes and caloric intake. Therefore, unless someone is weighing their nut butter, it’s not uncommon to report eating one tablespoon of peanut butter on toast... when in reality it’s probably closer to three
In saying this there’s absolutely nothing inherently wrong with traditional peanut butter, as it’s a delicious, satiating, and nutritious source of food packed full of heart-healthy monounsaturated fatty acids! However, if you’re wanting to get more “bang for your nuts”, and lather your food with the good stuff while consuming more protein and less calories... then PB powder could certainly be a viable alternative to traditional PB every now and again!
Made from only three ingredients of whole roasted peanuts, Australian Manuka honey and Himalayan pink salt, you can see that Marmadukes PB has 1/5 of the calories per 2tbsp serving compared to traditional PB, and per 100 calories consumed over twice the protein!
