I received (2) two bottles of Mighty Nut powdered peanut butter to facilitate this review, recipe and giveaway in partnership with SweatPink. All opinions and recipe are my own.
With a vegan daughter in the house, we use a lot of nuts and seeds as a source of healthy fats and protein. And though the fat from nuts and seeds is the good kind of fat, I don’t mind cutting back whenever I can do so without compromising on flavor and other nutrients.
That’s why I was excited to sample these new Mighty Nut powdered peanut butters fromPeanut Butter & Co.
About Mighty Nut Powdered peanut Butter
Peanut Butter & Co just launched Mighty Nut, their new powdered peanut butter! Each batch of Mighty Nut is created from quality USA grown peanuts. The peanuts are roasted, then pressed, to remove most of the fat. What remains is protein, fiber and delicious peanut buttery taste.
These powdered peanut butters come in four scrumptious varieties:
- Original
- Vanilla
- Chocolate
- Flax & Chia
I received the original and the chia and flaxseed version which I loved! These peanut butters are based on 3 simple ingredients:
- peanuts
- dried cane syrup
- salt
They can be rehydrated with water or your choice of milk to make a creamy spread that is perfect to stuff celery sticks or generously spooned onto apple or other fruit slices.
I found Mighty Peanut Butter to be easy to use and rich in flavor and I certainly did not miss the fat. I tend to make my own nut butters but did not feel as though I was compromising on flavor or nutrients. Mighty Nut peanut butter is also fabulous in smoothies. I made a few varieties that were delicious!
Have you ever paired peanut butter with persimmons? Yum!
Of course a smoothie with half a banana, two scoops of Mighty Nut and a little raw cacao is scrumptious for breakfast or snack.. Add a little kale or spinach and you’ve got a fabulous pick me up!
Because Mighty Nut Peanut butters are dehydrated they are easy to pack for a healthy snack on a hike or camping trip. 🙂
I love making chocolaty treats no matter what time of year and I could not resist trying my hand at homemade chocolate peanut butter cups with these healthy peanut butters. After all if I can make my treats a little healthier I’m a happy mom!!
I used dark chocolate (my favorite) and these peanut butter cups came out so scrumptious I barely had time to snap a couple of photos before they were gobbled up by the goblins in my home.
These are so simple to make I’ll be whipping up a few more batches this weekend.
Here’s what you’ll need:
- 4 tablespoons Mighty Nut peanut butter of your choice
- 3 tablespoons almond milk (or other milk of your choice)
- 8 ounces dark or semi sweet chocolate
- mini muffin baking pan
- mini muffin liners
Start by making a creamy peanut butter by mixing the powdered peanut butter with the almond milk.
Place chocolate in a double boiler.
Melt chocolate slowly until creamy and without lumps.
Spoon chocolate into mini muffin liners and swirl to coat sides.
Place muffin tin in freezer for about a minute until chocolate is set.
Place a spoonful of rehydrated peanut butter into each chocolate cup.
Spoon melted chocolate on top of peanut butter, making sure you seal your peanut butter cups completely. Don’t worry about being messy, it’s hard not to be 🙂
Return cups to freezer for another minute or two until chocolate is set.
Carefully peel back the paper from your peanut butter cups and take that first scrumptious bite!!
ENJOY!!!

I had not heard of these powdered nut butters before being invited to review them Ellen and I am delighted with them! I believe we need healthy fats and eat a variety of nuts on a regular basis but because of their high fat content I keep servings small.. I love that MightyNut retains all the protein and flavor with a great reduction in fat as I can enjoy them even more 🙂
