Can You Swap Powdered Peanut Butter For The Real Thing?

In many cases, powdered peanut butter can be used in place of the real thing, but it’s important to think about its properties. Their consistencies can
cause differences in a recipe.
In a smoothie or sauce, powdered peanut butter can be a good swap because it will still give the nutty flavor. However, swapping powder for real in baked goods might make them dry.
Since some recipes rely on the oil in the peanut butter, adding more oil will keep it moist. Mixing the powdered peanut butter with water will also help keep it from becoming dry.
