What No-Sugar Peanut Butters do I Recommend?

I loved this Adams 100% Natural Peanut Butter (affiliate link) from the first time I tried it. Now the chunky and smooth varieties are something I always have in my fridge to use for recipes where I’m using peanut butter in a sauce or dressing. I use chunky the most, but I also buy Adams No-Stir Creamy Peanut Butter (affiliate link) to use in sauces! When I’m making Sugar-Free Peanut Butter Cookies or using peanut butter in a sweet treat of any kind, I prefer Skippy No-Sugar Added Creamy Peanut Butter (affiliate link).

What to do if Natural Peanut Butter has Separated:

When you bring natural peanut butter home from the store it will sometimes be separated with a layer of oil on top. When I’m ready to start on a new jar from the pantry, I put the peanut butter and oil into my food processor and pulse until the oil is completely combined. It’s a bit of a messy job, but completely effective. Keep natural peanut butter in the fridge once it’s been opened.
