Are you nutty for nut butter? Nothing sound better than a crisp good ol’ peanut butter on toast, an almond butter cookie, or a dash of nut butter in your smoothie? Then boy oh boy do we have news for you! We went on the hunt for the best nut butters around and here are our top three we are going NUTS for…
Nut Brothers is local, like, really local. So local, its small batch roasted in Auckland. It is that local roasting which Nut Brothers believe delivers a fresh and flavourful nut butter EVERY. TIME. Just like your favourite espresso coffee, you can really taste the difference in the freshness when peanuts are roasted and milled the same day, right here in little ol’ NZ.
The team at Nut Brothers are also local, meaning there is a Kiwi on the end of the scoop, loading peanuts into a roaster, listening to the peanuts crack, smelling the aroma of the roast and watching closely until it’s perfectly ready for grinding, with each step of the nut-buttery process perfectly produces a great batch every time. There are some nut butters that are made overseas, but not when you buy Nut Brothers, you can rest assured that you are getting honest to goodness, locally roasted and milled the SAME DAY, nut butters (nobody wants stale nut butter right?)
Whether you are a family of nut butter lovers, a gym-nutter, wellness warrior, or just a regular, eat it with a teaspoon in your comfy pants bingeing Netflix kind of nut butter aficionado, you’ll love the Nut Brothers range.
PSA they also have a seriously delicious Salted Caramel Peanut Butter variety and a 65% Cacao Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter – um, YES PLEASE!!!
Good bits, big bits, little bits and everything in between, that’s what Pic’s Peanut Butter Crunchy is all about, not just smooth with bits in it! They are good peanuts too. Much like people, Hi Oleic peanuts are all different. But the team at Pics chooses all the good sorts. Freshly roasted in their oven (the peanuts that is not the people), squashed in their squashers and sprinkled with salt and jarred at the home of Pic’s Peanut Butter world in Nelson.
It’s the stuff you keep at the front of your pantry, front and centre, like most New Zealanders. It’s definitely a peanut butter to be proud of. You can find their delicious nut butters, jelly and oils in your local supermarket.
Beloved Kiwi brand Fix and Fogg have introduced two new products! Everything Butter and Double Trouble Smooth. After the brand released its Everything Butter at the start of 2019, everyone wanted MORE! Not just more jars – but bigger jars! Now you can with its even bigger jars with 500g of nutty goodness inside. More in the jar equals more in our bellies!
Its Double Trouble Super Crunchy was also looking a little lonely, so it now has a friend on the shelf – Smooth Double Trouble (including double the peanut butter of their standard 375g jars!).
Best of all, if you still don’t want to leave your house, you can buy all of them on their website HERE.
