Can You Put Peanut Butter in Coffee?

Absolutely! Think about it, we already enjoy several “nutty” varieties of coffee creamers- hazelnut, butter pecan, macadamia nut- so the idea of nuts and coffee isn’t all that unusual.

Salty and sweet peanut butter blends best with a good cup of coffee when it’s melted. And the velvety texture it creates is irresistibly delicious. A couple of turns of the spoon transforms a morning or afternoon cup of coffee into something quite exquisite!
