Is peanut butter the devil out of a mason jar? Thank God no! On the contrary: it tastes heavenly and is also healthy.
For a long time I did not understand why the Americans peanut butter everywhere smear underneath. My first time with the spreadable nut was really disappointing. I thought, naively, that peanut butter was sweet – so right, like chocolate cream. After realizing that this is unfortunately not the case, I banned the alternative butter from my menu for the time being. Until one fine day I combined peanut butter with chocolate. It’s happened to me since then. But while I assumed peanut butter was something similarly unhealthy as chocolate spread, I had a glimmer of hope that maybe peanut butter could be minimally healthy, I could just block out all the bad aspects and enjoy the awesome stuff, when whenever i want. Lo and behold, Google didn’t disappoint: peanut butter is healthy!
Get rid of the carrots, let’s eat, ladies!

Peanut butter is not just peanut butter
Unfortunately, not all of these great qualities apply to every commercially available peanut butter. You should pay attention to this when shopping:
- Peanut butter should natural be. Otherwise, they often contain excess unhealthy fats and other artificial additives.
- When buying the peanut butter, pay attention to the ingredients used. The proportion of peanuts should be at least 70 percent, trans fats, preservatives and sugar should ideally not be on the list of ingredients.
- Even better Peanut butter or peanut cream. In contrast to peanut butter, peanut butter is always made from 100% aromatic legumes.
- If you like, you can also use peanut butter or peanut cream self made. Simply add peanuts with a little peanut oil and a little salt to the mix and mix vigorously. Done and all natural.
Even if the coveted butter has many benefits, one calorie bomb unfortunately she stays anyway. So a glass a day is not in it, but with the 2-3 spoons it can also be the one with sugar. If you don’t want that, peanut butter is also available pure and delicious in the Health food store or health food store.
