Great Value Powdered Peanut Butter
What it is
This is a dehydrated peanut butter product. It is made by pressing roasted peanuts to remove most of the oil. The remaining peanut solids are then ground into a powder. This process results in a lighter, shelf-stable product that can be reconstituted with water.
How people cook with it
Powdered peanut butter is a versatile ingredient that can be used in both sweet and savory dishes. It's a convenient way to add peanut flavor to many recipes.
- Smoothies
- Baking
- Sauces
- Dips
To use, simply whisk the powder with water until smooth. The ratio of powder to water can be adjusted to achieve your desired consistency. For a spreadable peanut butter, use less water. For a thinner consistency, add more water. It can also be added directly to dry ingredients in recipes like cookies or muffins, or blended into smoothies and shakes for a boost of peanut flavor without the added oil. It's also a great base for peanut sauces or salad dressings.
