Erdnussbutter, or peanut butter, is a creamy spread made from ground roasted peanuts, often enhanced with salt, sugar, or emulsifiers for texture and flavor. Originating in the United States in the late 19th century, it has since become a staple in various global cuisines, particularly for sandwiches, snacks, and desserts. Rich in protein, healthy fats, and essential vitamins like B3 and E, peanut butter supports energy levels and heart health when consumed in moderation. It also contains fiber, which aids digestion. However, many store-bought varieties may include added sugars and hydrogenated oils, which can contribute to weight gain and increased cholesterol levels. Natural or unsweetened versions are healthier options for those looking to maximize its nutritional benefits. Peanut butter works well in both savory and sweet dishes, providing a versatile, nutrient-packed addition to meals.
