How much peanut butter is a serving size?

A serving of peanut butter is equal to the size of a golf ball or 2 Tablespoons.

And let me tell you that size is definitely not an issue when it comes to peanut butter because this food is all boots and all hat.

Although pricey in calories at about 200 calories per serving, that's generally the amount sufficient to quell the most ravenous of appetites.

If you need a larger serving size of peanut butter OR if you want to cut calories then check out the whipped peanut butter from Peter Pan. It's so delicious and can cut fat grams and calorie content about 1/3.

Note: Eating peanuts may trigger an allergic reaction in some individuals.

Snack Suggestion: Enjoy 1 teaspoon of peanut butter spread inside the hull of a dry celery stick for about 100 calories.

Recipe Suggestion: Substitute oil for peanut butter using 1/2 the recommended amount in recipes that compliment peanut butter.
