ETA: peanut butter cream pie is delicious

If I make my pb/Pb2 Greek yogurt with a dash of salt, vanilla and butter flavoring, and leave it overnight, it firms up and becomes very pie-like. I have it for breakfast about 99% of the time!

The sour taste of the yogurt doesn't mesh well with pb for me. What is "butter flavoring"?

I sweeten it with stevia, but I like cheesecake so the tartness doesn't bother me. I use a lot of liquid cooking flavors like orange or maple to make my own Flavored yogurt and hot chocolate. It also comes in butter, so I get the taste with fewer calories. Should be in the baking or spice aisle at most stores. I prefer the Mccormick brand. (Other brands use a ton of alcohol that has to evaporate before you can eat it.)

Straight out of the jar. On my finger if necessary.

straight from the jar on a spoon!

Me too, which is why I can't keep it in the house!

I'm not prone to binging, except for peanut butter.

On a spoon. Lol.

As crunchy as they come. With apples...celery...bananas...by itself...with chocolate...with just about everything..

I could go on for days.

If i want normal peanut butter i always go for the chunky variety. If i'm feeling smooth then i always go for one of these two specialty ones-

Please, please just STOP!

We make our own in the food process. Roasted peanuts with sea salt and honey. I put mine with bacon on an English muffin for supper sometimes. I love it on caramel rice cakes. And I eat it several times daily mixed into nonfat Greek yogurt, along with PB2 to keep flavor up and calories down. Oh, and I will mix some with a little stevia and extra salt, stir in chocolate chips and microwave til soft. A lovely special treat! I also like to spread some on a chocolate chip oatmeal granola bar.

I mixed Greek yogurt, PB and kashi protein cereal (with stevia) for a breakfast parfait, but your ideas sound waaaay better. Thanks!

My recipe is:
150g plain unsweetened yogurt (can use pre-sweetened, but doesn't get as pie-like, even sitting in the fridge overnight. )
6-8 grams stevia in the raw powder (taste after 2 tsp and tweak from there)
A couple drops each vanilla and butter flavoring
5g creamy natural pb
18g Pb2

It's just over 200 cals and has 22g of protein. You can lower cals by skipping the real PB.

I blend it with a little milk frothing whisk. It firms up overnight, but you can eat it right away. Add 10g of Grapenuts if you like texture, but wait a few minutes or you will break your teeth! LOL

Oh, another variation is to add 1/3c water and 8g of sugar-free instant Butterscotch or chocolate Pudding mix. It doesn't firm up and adds sodium, but it's a nice change of pace and does increase volume for relatively few cals. You can add cocoa as well, but it needs a lot of stevia.
