They’re nutty, scrummy, and some are even savory! I could happily eat anything with peanut butter all day long. But it’s not the healthiest ingredient. Peanut butter powder, though, is healthier and tastes exactly the same! Made from roasted, ground peanuts, it can have up to 85% less fat than regular peanut butter. And it can be used in everything from cookies to noodles. Seriously, one bite (or sip) of these peanut butter powder recipes, and you’ll be hooked!
25 Easy Recipes with Peanut Butter Powder
1. Healthy PB2 Peanut Butter Powder Cookies

Oh, and thanks to the oat flour, they’re gluten-free too! Note: PB2 is a brand of powdered peanut butter. It’s my fave, but you can use any brand for all these recipes. Just remember to double-check the nutrient contents, as some brands add sugar and salt.
