Let’s Talk Peanut Butter Snacks!
Isn’t peanut butter the best? It’s such a simple snack that you can easily have with you wherever you go. Because of its fat content it helps to fill you up and gives you that extra boost of protein as well.
I crave peanut butter all the time so I often create simple homemade snacks where peanut butter is the star of the show. I’m always ready and excited to make peanut butter packed snacks again and again.
Today I’m sharing 15 of of the best healthy peanut butter snacks that I think you’re going to love. If you’re focusing on snacking well, this list of snacks will inspire you to create snacks in a new way and get busy in the kitchen.
Is Peanut Butter Healthy For You?
Peanut butter is definitely a nutritious food (so long as you’re eating it in moderation, like most things). It contains fat, protein, and is a great source of B vitamins and magnesium. It’s important to use natural peanut butter that doesn’t have any additives or sugars on the ingredient list, or make your own homemade healthy peanut butter (check out my recipe!).
If you’re looking for a quick and easy snack that can provide your body with healthy calories, you’re going to love these delicious peanut butter snacks.
