Nut butters

Nut butter is tasty, creamy, and packed with nutrients. Commercial peanut butter can remain fresh for up to nine months at room temperature, despite the fact that storage temperatures might alter shelf life. At 50°F (10°C), natural peanut butter can last up to three months, but at 77°F (25°C), it can only survive one month. Almond butter can last up to a year at room temperature, whereas cashew butter can last up to three months, according to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA).

Nut butter is a great source of protein, protein-rich healthy fats, vitamins, minerals, and potent plant chemicals including phenolic antioxidants, which shield your body from oxidative stress and harm from unstable molecules known as free radicals. Smaller packages of nut butter can be taken camping or backpacking as an on-the-go snack, while larger jars can be kept in the cupboard.
