There was a time when peanut butter was the only choice when it came to nut butter but ever since veganism picked up speed, many other varieties have emerged in the market, providing customers with many options. But not all of them are the same, since different nuts are used to make them. So, here's the calorie composition of some of the popular nut butters.
A tablespoon serving of peanut butter provides you with approximately 95 calories. It is often sold in both smooth and crunchy textures.
Almond butter has a similar amount of calories, as it packs 98 calories in a single tablespoon serving.
Similar to peanut and almond butter, cashew butter also has an identical calorie composition, with 94 calories per serving.
Often sold in a mixed chocolate combination to enhance the flavour, hazelnut packs 94 calories in every serving.
Since macadamia nuts have a higher percentage of fat, they provide 110 calories in a single tablespoon serving.
Like macadamia butter, pecan butter is also on the higher side of calories, with each serving having 110 calories.
A lovely green-coloured butter that is delicious and relatively low in calories, with 90 calories per serving.
