Can you eat peanut butter on Keto?
Peanuts have been a controversial food when it comes to Keto. There are many who say a firm no, some who say maybe if you count your macros and there are some who say yes without a care in the world. I even did a Keto 101 video where I put forward my views on this. The short version is, yes you can, in moderation and as long as you count your macros. Which means peanut butter is on the table. Most store bought peanut butter though has some amount of added sugar, so it’s best to make this at home. It’s very quick and extremely easy. Best of all it takes 10 minutes to make. So go on and try our recipe!
