Peanut Butter Syrup
This peanut butter syrup is made with only 3 ingredients (one being water!) and makes the perfect topping for protein pancakes, waffles, protein french toast and even ice cream with chocolate chips on top.
Drizzle on top of a fantastic warm dessert, breakfast baked oats, or peanut butter chocolate muffins.
Using PBFit powdered peanut butter is one of my favorite ways to get a lower-calorie version of a classic peanut butter sauce with half the calories and fat. Adding homemade syrup with added protein to your morning breakfast is a healthy alternative and a great way to sneak in those extra grams of protein. You can use maple syrup in place of honey and make peanut butter maple syrup instead.
