Peanut butter is thick, creamy, and perfectly sweet and salty. There’s just one problem: it’s loaded with fat and calories. On average, one tablespoon of peanut butter is around 94 calories! And let’s be honest, who only eats one tablespoon of peanut butter? Luckily, these PB2 recipes are here to satisfy your hunger – without the guilt. PB2 is just as tasty as regular peanut butter, but with only 20 calories per tablespoon! So what are you waiting for? Let’s get to it!
PB2 Powdered Peanut Butter Recipes
1. 3-Ingredient PB2 Protein Peanut Butter Cookies
These peanut butter cookies are low in fat, carbs, and calories; they’re also high in flavor. They’re super chewy and indulgent, yet they’re only 38 calories a pop. And yes, it’s possible to make cookies with just three ingredients (PB2, sweetener, and an egg). I know it sounds crazy, but it’s legit!
2. PB2 Overnight Oats
Start your morning with a hearty and healthy meal that tastes like dessert! These overnight oats are sweet and loaded with flavor from PB2, maple syrup, and vanilla. Chopped peanuts are also added for crunch, but you can leave those out if you prefer them smooth.
3. PB2 Flourless Chocolate Brownies
Even if you’re not on a diet, I highly recommend these flourless chocolate brownies. The absence of flour in this recipe is absolutely not a loss. On the contrary, I think it even improves the texture! Without the flour, these brownies are extra fudgy and chewy. The combination of cocoa powder, chocolate chips, honey, and PB2 is also a genius idea. It makes the dessert more indulgent than ever.

If not for the green hue, you wouldn’t even notice it’s there.

This salad is as delicious as it is colorful. I’m not one to pick a salad over, say, a burger. But this one speaks to me. I mean, just look at it and tell me you don’t want a bite. It’s a stunning mix of chickpeas, golden beets, kale, red currants, and avocado slices. Wow is an understatement! The dressing is to die for, too, with a blend of oat milk, mustard, PB2, garlic, capers, sour cream, olive oil, and lemon. It’s creamy, salty, tart, and savory, all in one impeccable bite.
