About One tb spoon of peanut butter
A tablespoon of peanut butter is a rich, creamy spread made from ground roasted peanuts. Originating from North America, it has become a staple in cuisines worldwide, often used in sandwiches, baked goods, smoothies, or savory dishes. Nutritionally, peanut butter is packed with protein, healthy fats, and essential nutrients like magnesium, vitamin E, and niacin. These elements can support muscle growth, heart health, and sustained energy. However, it's calorie-dense, with one tablespoon containing around 90–100 calories, so portion control is key. Some varieties may include added sugars, oils, or preservatives, which can diminish its health benefits. Opting for natural or organic peanut butter with minimal additives ensures a healthier choice. With its satisfying flavor and nutrient profile, peanut butter serves as both a versatile ingredient and a convenient snack for balanced diets or active lifestyles.
