About Peanut Butter
Peanut butter, a beloved pantry staple, traces its roots back to ancient civilizations where indigenous peoples in South America were known to mash roasted peanuts into a paste. However, it wasn't until the late 19th and early 20th centuries that peanut butter as we know it gained popularity in the United States, thanks to innovators like Dr. John Harvey Kellogg and Dr. Ambrose Straub.
Today, this creamy spread has become a global phenomenon. Beyond its delectable taste, peanut butter packs a nutritional punch. Rich in protein, healthy fats, and various essential vitamins and minerals, it contributes to heart health, aids in weight management, and provides a sustainable energy source. Whether enjoyed on toast, blended into smoothies, or used in cooking, peanut butter stands as a versatile and nutritious addition to a balanced diet.

Ingredient Substitutions
- Peanut Butter: You can substitute for any nut butter like almond butter or hazelnut butter. If you’re allergic to nuts, opt for a seed butter like pumpkin butter or sunflower seed butter instead. When choosing a nut or seed butter, remember to look at the ingredients to ensure there are no added oils or sugars.
TIPS & TRICKS
- I would not recommend pouring the cannabis oil directly into the jar that the peanut butter came in. Scoop out the desired amount of peanut butter that you want to infuse into another mixing bowl, and then add your cannabis oil to that bowl. This way, you can also have non-infused peanut butter to enjoy as well.
