I just discovered peanut butter powder and I am over the moon in love! Anyone on a low fat diet or cutting for a bodybuilding contest whatever division you are in knows how hard it is to be able to enjoy copious amounts of things like peanut butter, dark chocolate, butter and other high fat foods during their contest prep or on their low-fat diet.

PBfit is pretty much like finding gold… During my current cut phase, 5 weeks out to a contest for a figure and bikini competition,  I actually got to eat ants on a log,  PBfit and jelly sandwich and a PBfit chocolate smoothie. OMG….

Most of the time I just eat it with a spoon! Just add water! It mixes well, tastes great and is just plain super fantastic! PB2 is also another peanut butter powder that is similar.

Anywhere a recipe calls for regular peanut butter, just make the peanut butter powder to its creamy form by adding water and mixing, then use in the desired recipe. You can use it in the powdered form when making smoothies, ice cream, in hot cocoa and so on.

In a 2 tbsp serving, there is 1.5g fat, 4 carbs and 5g protein.

 I bought mine at Sam’s Club. Enjoy!

1) Peanut butter protein shake:

Add a spoonful of peanut butter powder to your normal protein shake for extra protein and flavor.

My fav is 36g of chocolate protein, 80g of frozen bananas, 4 Tbsp PB Fit and 6-8oz of liquid (water, almond milk etc).

2) Peanut butter powder pancakes or waffles:

Do 1 of 2 things: either add two teaspoons of PB Fit powder to your pancake or waffle batter for a roasted peanut taste, or make up some PB Fit to its creamy form by just adding water and putting it on top. Try these Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Waffles that use PB powder!

3) No bake oaty bites:

These are perfect for an afternoon snack. Use PB Fit instead of regular peanut butter in this recipe: Oaty Bites

4) Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches:

Totally classic, I actually grill my PB & J like you would a grilled cheese. I just love that warm goey PB Fit and jelly! Another lowfat option for that grilled PB & J is to use  I Can’t Believe its Not Butter Light on the outsides of the bread when you are frying it up!

5) Thai peanut sauce:

One of my favorite things to eat over chicken, rice and peppers… Thai peanut sauce made with PB Fit. Use light coconut milk (my fav is from Trader Joes) for a lower fat option.  See recipe here.

6) Peanut butter curry:

Once again, another fav of mine to put over chicken, potatoes, red peppers and carrots! Again, use light coconut milk for a lower fat option and xylitol in place of the sugar. See recipe here.

7) Peanut butter cookies:

Ummm.. YUM! Need I say more? Now, when you make a recipe like this that uses a lot of peanut butter, it will have a flavor difference using PBfit. Use half real peanut butter, half PBfit. Peanut Butter Cookies Recipe

….or try these bars below! They use applesauce so once you use PBfit, they will be lowfat!!! Again, these will have a flavor difference using PBfit compared to the original recipe, but I thought they were pretty tasty while desperate in cut phase. You can also do half real PB + 1/2 PB Fit. You may need to bake theses 10 minutes longer if you substitute peanut butter powder. See Recipe Here.

11) Homemade granola bars:

Give yourself a high energy start to your workout or day with homemade no bake granola bars. Add PBfit in place of regular PB. They are to die for!

Add a teaspoon (more or less to taste) of powdered PBfit to a mug of hot chocolate.

A great savory option for any meal. Make this recipe with PBfit along with chicken or ground turkey for a real low fat recipe. Recipe here.
