About Peanut butter
Reduced-fat smooth peanut butter is a spreadable, energy-dense staple usually kept close at hand for toast, sandwiches, and baking, made by blending roasted peanuts with less oil than the standard version. Even so, it remains calorie-rich at 520 kcal per 100 g, with 34 g of fat (5.76 g saturated), 25.9 g of protein, 35.6 g of carbohydrate and 5.2 g of fibre.
It's a notably good source of magnesium (170 mg per 100 g) and potassium (669 mg), with modest calcium (35 mg) and iron (1.9 mg) too. Sodium is fairly high at 540 mg per 100 g, largely from added salt in processing, so portion awareness matters more than the reduced-fat label might suggest, since some brands add sugar or starch to replace the removed oil. A thin scrape on wholegrain toast or stirred into a sauce keeps portions in check while still delivering its characteristic nutty flavour.
