Keto Peanut Butter Recipes That Hit the Spot

Peanut butter is one of the most satisfying ingredients on keto — packed with fat, protein, and flavor. I use natural peanut butter with no added sugar in everything from fat bombs to cookies and savory sauces.

The simplest keto cookie I make is peanut butter based: one cup of PB, one egg, and sweetener. That’s it. Three ingredients, 10 minutes, and they taste incredible.

Keto sub Almond butter is the closest swap with fewer carbs. Sunflower seed butter works for nut-free — expect a slightly different flavor.
Storage Natural PB separates — store upside down, then stir before use. Keeps 3+ months in the pantry, longer in the fridge.

I use natural peanut butter with just peanuts and salt — no added sugar or hydrogenated oils. For baking, I always stir it well first so the oil is evenly distributed. Peanut butter cookies are one of the simplest keto desserts: 1 cup PB, 1 egg, sweetener, done.
