Why you’ll love this blueberry nut butter

This healthy recipe uses simple ingredients like roasted peanuts, fresh blueberries or dried blueberries, a splash of maple syrup or honey. Feel free to add optional boosts like chia seeds or flaxseed for added nutrition.

Do blueberries go well with peanut butter?

Absolutely! blueberries and peanut butter are a surprisingly perfect match!

The natural sweetness and slight tartness of blueberries balances the rich, salty creaminess of peanut butter. Together they pack in fibre, healthy fats, plant-based protein, and antioxidants. The power couple for snacks or breakfast.

You can pair blueberries and peanut butter in energy bites or bars, on toast, in smoothies, in yoghurts or as a dip.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups peanuts (unsalted)
  • ½ cup fresh/frozen blueberries (or ¼ cup dried blueberries for a thicker texture)
  • 1–2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust for sweetness)
  • Optional:
    • 1 tablespoon chia seeds or flaxseed meal
    • A dash of cinnamon
    • A pinch of sea salt

Feel free to adjust quantities based on your taste!

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to around 180 (Fan)
  2. Place the peanuts on a baking tray (I use parchment paper for ease)
300g of peanuts on a roasting tray ready to go in the oven

3. Bake for around 20 minutes until golden brown. I like to check the peanuts and move them around the baking tray every 7 minutes or so

4. Once the peanuts are golden brown, remove from the oven and let them cool

5. Add the peanuts to a food processor and blend until smooth. This might take 5–10 minutes depending on your machine

6. First it’ll go crumbly, then sticky, then finally turn into creamy peanut butter

7. Once you have a creamy paste, add the blueberries and blend again until you have a smooth consistency

8. Add the peanut butter to a jar and it is ready to serve

Storage Tips

If you use fresh/frozen blueberries keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week

Serving Ideas

This creamy blueberry nut butter is perfect when:

  • Swirled into oatmeal or yogurt
  • Spread on toast with blueberries or ripe banana slices
  • Mixed into energy bites or smoothies
  • Baked into cookies
  • Straight from the spoon, no judgment here

This type of nut butter is a great way to enjoy healthy snacks that feel a little special. Unlike most store-bought jars, this homemade recipe skips the added oils and preservatives.

You can even swap the peanuts for almond butter, cashew butter or sunflower seed butter if you prefer.

Plus, it will fit easily into your meal plans or weekend prep. It’s loaded with healthy fats and plant-based protein. The perfect sweet little pick-me-ups between the day.

Enjoy!

I love to serve this on toasted sourdough with fresh blueberries and drizzle honey on top. Maple syrup also works to make this recipe vegan friendly.
