So I know you’re probably thinking “how the heck is peanut butter low fat?” Well check out this li’l baby, my latest find: PB2.

This powdered peanut butter has 85% less fat calories than regular peanut butter, and only contains 45 calories in 2 tablespoons. I was disappointed to learn it contains some sugar, but not much- only 1 gram in 2 tablespoons.

How does it taste?

I put too much liquid here, but it smells & tastes just like peanut butter. With the right amount of water, it’s the same consistency as peanut butter. The roasted peanuts, salt, & sugar really help bring out the taste. I can sorta tell that there’s a fat component missing, but not enough that it bothers me. I love this stuff! I’ve been putting it into peanut butter & banana sandwiches, fruit & yogurt, oatmeal…

Which reminds me! You need to go make this chocolate peanut butter oatmeal right meow! If you don’t have PB2, just use regular peanut butter. If you’re Canadian like me & can’t find this awesome stuff anywhere, I found this great website that does cheap shipping to Canada. I ordered 4 jars, as the shipping remains the same whether it’s only 1 jar or 4. They also have a chocolate one, but I’d rather just add in my own cocoa powder. ‘Sup to you.

Enjoy, foodies! From my kitchen to yours <3

  1. I love this! I love the flavor combination and that it’s low fat!! I have a problem with making peanut butter and chocolate treats low in fat. This looks so delicious!

    I’ve heard that PB2 is really yummy. A;ot of bloggers seem to use it for lower fat/calorie recipes. Quick question: how much protein does it have per serving? :)

  3. Girlfriend I love that you found a site with cheaper shipping! I have been trying to get this stuff for ages! However, I went through the checkout and it only offered one shipping option to Canada which was $21.95 – twice the price of the 3 PB2 jars I had ordered lol. Was this how much you paid or am I missing an obvious cheaper shipping option??
