Shoprite Bowl & Basket Original Peanut Butter Powder
What it is
This is a powdered form of peanut butter. It is made by pressing out most of the oil from roasted peanuts and then grinding the remaining peanut solids into a powder. This process significantly reduces the fat content compared to traditional peanut butter.
How people cook with it
This versatile ingredient can be used in a variety of ways to add peanut flavor to both sweet and savory dishes.
- Smoothies and shakes
- Baking and energy balls
- Sauces and dressings
- Dips and spreads
To create a peanut butter spread, simply whisk the powder with water until it reaches your desired consistency. Start with a ratio of about 2 tablespoons of powder to 1 tablespoon of water and adjust as needed. This reconstituted peanut butter can be used just like regular peanut butter on toast or in sandwiches. It dissolves easily in liquids.
How it differs from similar foods
It also has a lighter texture and a more concentrated peanut flavor when reconstituted. The shelf-stable nature of the powder also makes it a convenient pantry staple.
Who it is for
Home cooks looking for a lighter way to enjoy peanut flavor in their meals and snacks.
How to keep the rest
Once opened, store the peanut butter powder in a cool, dry place. Ensure the container is tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption, which can cause clumping. Proper storage will maintain its quality and flavor for an extended period.
