What better way to kick off the weekend than with a giveaway!? I’m really excited about sharing this product with you guys. I don’t accept product reviews often but when Marina reached out to me about her new company, Better Butter, I was interested in learning more.
After spending some time on her site, I knew that Better Butter was a product that I wanted to try. Marina is a fellow nut butter addict and started experimenting with ways to reduce the fat and calorie content in a serving of nut butter. She discovered that by replacing some of the oils with banana and pumpkin puree, she could cut the fat and calorie content nearly in half. A two tablespoon serving of better butter has on average 45% less calories, 50% less fat and 65% less saturated fat than normal peanut butter.
I received a full-sized jar of Honey Nut Banana Better Butter along with a sampler pack of the other flavors.
I have enjoyed sampling the Better Butter products and love that I can pile them on guilt-free! I’ve been topping toast, fruit and oatmeal with Better Butter ever since I received the sample a week ago. This nut butter is seriously delicious! I’m working on some recipe ideas using Better Butter too.
I asked Marina if she’d be willing to give away samples to a Peanut Butter Runner reader and she graciously agreed. She is going to send one reader a full-sized jar of their choice along with a sample pack. I am not a fan of contests that force people to follow you on Twitter and Tweet about the giveaway or make people like the product on Facebook for extra entries (of course I’d like for you to do both but only because you want to! :)). What I do ask is that you check out the Better Butter website and leave a comment about what flavor you’d like to try and why. I’d love to hear ideas on how you’d like to use Better Butter too!
You have until Sunday evening at midnight (EST) to enter. I’ll announce the winner on Monday!
i don’t have twitter so i can never do those giveaways 😉 i would LOVE to try Nutty Chocolate chip!!!
wow, i guess my sweet tooth is in full effect.. definitely the nutty chocolate chip! love your blog.
The Nutty Chocolate Chip and Maple Pumpkin sound delicious! I love dipping dates in peanut butter or almond butter, so that would be one way I’d use them. 🙂
Yum, Better Butter!!! Since I usually top off my oats, fruit, yogurt, cottage cheese, toast (pretty much everything) with nuts, honey, and sliced bananas, I am going to go with the…Honey Nut Banana! So delicious!!! 🙂
Oh definitely the honey nut banana. That’s my favorite oatmeal combination! And they can come all in one jar? Yes please!
I love this product!! Thank you for posting about it–I am going to order the maple pumpkin butter soon..I mean now! I’m dreaming of it in my oats, on my toasted Dakota bread, spread on French toast, dripped on bananas & if I get too crazy layered between oatmeal cookies:)
Chocolate Chip! I am obsessed with almond butter in my oats for breakfast, and I can only imagine how much better breakfast would taste with CHOCOLATE in there somehow…I love that this has less fat and calories, I bet it is deelish on toast, apples, mixed with greek yogurt, in protein shakes, etc…yummy =)
Yum! Nutty Chocolate Chip!
I’d love to try the chocolate chip or maple pumpkin! What an excellent concept.
Oh my my. Is this heaven? Maple Pumpkin? I have a slight pumpkin obsession so I’d definitely say I’d love to try that one! As far as how to use it.. does straight out of the jar count? It’s less calories, right?! 😉
Yowza. How do I choose?! Nutty banana or chocolate chip for sure 🙂
Oh, maple pumpkin! I make a pumpkin protein pancake / waffle every morning for breakfast and use nut butter for some healthy fat… right now, it’s straight chocolate PB, and at first I was interested in the Better Butter Nutty Chocolate Chip, but I reconsidered because I don’t do Agave (for fructose reasons…).
An absolutely genius idea, though—I wonder what experimentation will do!
Great giveaway idea!
nutty chocolate chip!
thanks for spreading the word about this product
I would love to make a PB&J sandwich with nutty chocolate peanut butter. I think it would be amazing. I would also like to make PB crackers with any of the Peanut Butters Better Butter makes! 🙂
Honey Nut Banana sounds amazing! I love how this company tries to use local products when they can. Thanks for hosting such a great giveaway!
Definitely the honey nut banana. Can’t go wrong with that!
DEFINITELY the nutty chocolate chip for me 😉
Yum–i would try the Honey Nut Banana to revive my grandmother’s PB Banana Bread recipe and turn it into something healthy! I would take a warm loaf of it for my next get together with my girlfriends and tell them all the secret ingredient so they could order some too! Our group of friends tries to keep each other inspired and healthy–They will love these Better Butters 🙂
Are you kidding! A ‘good-for-you’ Nutella! I’d love to try the Nutty Chocolate Chip. That would be a dream to slather this on toast, or dollop it on oatmeal without a twinge of guilt. This sounds delicious!
I’d love to try the Maple Pumpkin just because I seem to love everything Pumpkin!!
All of the flavors sound really good! I think I’d get the most use out of the Honey Banana as it melds with a lot of the things I eat regularly.
I would love to try the Maple Pumpkin!!
I would love to try the maple pumpkin because I usually put maple almond butter in my pumpkin oats!
I would love to try the honey nut banana, it sounds perfect for oatmeal! Thank you!
Each flavor looks so good! It’s hard to choose, but I have to go with Nutty Chocolate Chip. Chocolate and peanut butter go together like….peanut butter and jelly?!
Jen – Please see my blog today for your award. Thanks.
Does not get more classic as Honey Nut Banana! Love reading your blog!
The Nutty Chocolate and the Maple Pumpkin – both would be soooo good on oatmeal!
Love your website and have been trying your recipes for awhile now….my sister, Amanda Dean, knows you from UGA and got me started! As for the better butter site, I would LOVE to try the maple pumpkin for our kids lunches! On sandwiches, in oatmeal, as dipping sauce. Good Luck!!
I’d love the nutty chocolate or maple pumpkin.
Love your blog!
oh wow! all the flavors look great! i’m prone to just eating PB straight from the jar, so any flavor sounds good. i do love banana oatmeal, so a scoop of the honey nut banana would be awesome in a bowl of oats 🙂
I’d LOVE to try nutty chocolate chip! Thanks for introducing us to this brand!!
Nutty Chocolate Chip! Although I must say they all look good. Thanks for sharing this brand. Whether I win or not I just might have to try it out! yumm and extra yum for a lower in calories option.
All three sound like great flavors to try! I’d love to incorporate the Nutty Chocolate Chip into a loaf of chocolate banana bread. Yummmmmm
I would LOvE to try the maple pumpkin flavor! Ever since you introduced the pumpkin butter from trader joe’s I have become obsessed with this sounds even better and healthier….I would put it in my plan greek yogurt and on my oatmeal!
Yum- I’m a complete nut butter addict as well. I think the Maple Pumpkin sounds amazing! What a clever idea subbing out some of the oils to make a less calorie dense nut butter! I would love to try some 🙂
They all look delicious! I would love to try the Honey Nut Banana – it would be perfect on toast with more bananas and chocolate chips!
I’m going with honey nut banana. I love peanut butter and banana, so that one sounds perfect. Great giveaway!
They all sound amazing, but nutty chocolate chip sounds best of all!
Ooh, I want to try them all! The Nutty Chocolate Chip would be 1st, though 🙂 I would love to put a scoop on my cinnamon banana steel cut oats that I eat and love almost every morning. Thanks for the great giveaway!
I would love to try the honey nut banana flavor. I love anything nutty and banana!
I’d really like to try the Nutty chocolate chip drizzled over some salty popcorn! Not sure why, but that sounds AmAzInG right now!
What an exciting giveaway! Now that Foodbuzz runs the show, I never see fun giveaways anymore. Anywho, this is a very cool product. I like that the company makes substitutions to reduce the fat and calorie content, but the ingredients that add also increase the nutritional value. A win-win situation! I like the Nutty Chocolate Chip–I’m a chocolate girl!
All of the nut butters sound wonderful!But I’d love to try the Nutty Chocolate Chip. A lot of times when I make cupcakes for my little boy I will “frost” them with Nutella or some other nut butter so that he isn’t getting lots of fat, sugar, and hydrogenated oil. The Nutty Chocolate Chip would be an excellent alternative! Peanut Butter Banana sandwiches would also be great to try with the Honey Nut Banana!:)
I would LOVE to try honey nut banana! It sounds amazing!!!!!
Mmmmmm I would love to try the Maple Pumpkin! 😀
Tough call! The all sound amazing but I may have to go with the Maple Pumpkin. The idea of adding it to my weekend pancakes sounds incredible!
Yum! I’d go for the Nutty Chocolate Chip. Thanks for the giveaway!
Maple pumkin sounds unreal! I love dipping apples in nut butters. YUM.
the maple pumpkin sounds awesome – I would use it for so many things – salad dressing or sauce or to dip fruit & veggies in! sounds so unique & delicious
Mmmm… Maple Pumpkin peanut butter sounds delicious! I know it’s not fall anymore, but that sounds divine – sweet w/ the peanut butter to contrast, and pumpkin-y so it’s not too honey/sugar-y. I’d definitely mix this into oatmeal, and also spread on toast, apples, etc. I’d love to try making some sort of peanut butter-ball type cookie with it too.
GIVE ME THE CHOC CHIP!!!! I’d put this on a sandwich thin when I needed a sweet treat! Or on homemade graham crackers!!!
Nutty Chocolate Chip sounds delish!
I have to go with the Maple Pumpkin. Even though it’s a fall-ish flavor, it just sounds awesome!
I would love to try honey nut banana or the maple pumpkin! i would go nuts with my oatmeal, overight oats, and some pbj sanwiches! those sound so delicious!!
nutty chocolate chip! If there’s a chocolate option I will ALWAYS choose it 🙂
Honey Nut Butter! MMMmmmm
All of them!!!!!
But if I have to choose one, I will go with Honey Nut Banana!
Honey Nut Banana sound like my doggie’s dream come TRUE. And mine 🙂
The Honey Nut Banana looks delicious! I love all nut butters!
Without question—maple pumpkin since those are two of my all-time favorite flavors!
I’m a simpleton here — I just enjoy nut butters on delish sprouted breads or in old fashioned oats! MAPLE PUMPKIN sounds divine!
They all look delicious and I am very impressed with these! I would have to say the Honey Nut Banana would be my first choice.
Oh yum! Honey Nut Banana here!
Hard to pick, but if I have to, I think I’d go with the pumpkin one… it sounds SO decadent! But it doesn’t get much better than a tied and true peanut butter and banana combo, so that sounds great too.
I absolutely love to eat healthy! They all sound amazing but I especially want to try Honey Banana Nut. I usually eat at my desk at work during the week and think it will be a great and lighter change to my usual peanut butter, banana & honey sandwich.
I’d love to try out the Honey Nut Banana 🙂
1) Because it was the first one to be created, and I think that trying out the original as a start is always a good choice 🙂
2) Because it reminds me of an evening in Miami when my husband drank a huge peanut butter banana smoothie… he ended up needing my help and my friend’s help to finish it… hilarious 🙂
Yumm!! The honey nut banana sounds perfect! I loooove peanut butter and banana sandwiches so I have no doubt this will be a delicious combination.
Any combo of chocolate & PB is a winner in my book 🙂 I’d try the Nutty Chocolate Chip.
And of course I’d incorporate them in my peanut butter truffles!
I’d love to try the Nutty Chocolate Chip to jazz up my oats! Honestly, what would it NOT make better?
Ooh, that’s tough. It’s between honey nut banana and maple pumpkin for me. Both sound amazing, but honey nut just makes me think of the Cheerios flavor, and that brings me right back to childhood. I think I’d go with that.
Yum!
Wow! Definitely a toss up between maple pumpkin and honey nut banana. Both sound very tasty to me!! But if I had to choose then honey nut banana since my skin is already turning a lovely shade of orange from too much pumpkin, winter squash, and carrots…need to lay off the beta-carotene big time!
The honey nut banana flavor looks fab. I bet it would be so good on toast with more banana and cinnamon on top. ah that sounds really good right now.
How could I NOT want the nutty chocolate chip??? It looks divine! thanks for doing the giveaway…fingers crossed!!
Is this contest open to family members that reside in the same house as the giveawayer? The Better Butter Chocolate PB was uber-tasty on my overnight oats this morning.
Chocolate chip all the way!
Team Nutty Chocolate Chip!!
Maple Pumpkin because you can NEVER get enough of pumpkiny goodness!
The nutty chocolate chip looks delicious!
The Nutty Chocolate Chip sounds delicious. They have a lot of recipes posted on their blog that I’d like to try, too. Great giveaway!
I’d like to give the banana/honey flavor a shot because, and I know this sounds odd, I have a hard time believing that it wouldn’t turn out slimy. How is it possible? Probably I’d use it on my oat bran every morning, but I bet I could make a mean batch of peanut butter banana chocolate chip muffins with it!
The Nutty Chocolate Chip sounds amazing! I would really like to try this brand!
Nutty Chocolate Chip! Peanuts, pumpkin, and chocolate?!?! Sounds amazing.
Wow those all look delicious! I love all nut butter and am intrigued by cutting the calories to add in something natural. I’d love to try the Honey Nut Banana!
The maple pumpkin sounds amazing!
Nutty Chocolate Chip and Maple Pumpkin. Who could ask for better things mixed up! Sign me up! Thanks for the heads up and fun contest. -tlo
I would like to try the honey nut banana, yum!
They all sound great. The chocolate flavor would be my first choice.
I would love to try the nutty chocolate chip! It sounds delicious. Can’t wait to spread it on a graham cracker or a frozen banana. What a tasty treat!!
I would love to try the honey nut banana! Sounds wonderful. I’d try to make a healthy smoothie with it or mix it into some frozen yogurt!
I would love to try the nutty chocolate chip! These sound great!
Oh my gosh, honey nut banana sounds AMAZING! I would love to try that!
I would love to try nutty chocolate chip! I love sweets and never can seem to get enough protein into my diet!

I’d absolutely LOVE to try the Maple Pumpkin flavor…
Or maybe the chocolate chip… or the Honey Nut Banana one!
OMG, everything sounds so good!
Haha.
I live in Brazil, though… Can I still participate?
🙂
They all sound AMAZING! I’d love to try Nutty Chocolate Chip!
I have this fig spread at home that tastes AMAZING when I heat it up and put it over cool greek yogurt. I can only amazing how this treat would taste if I combined the fig spread with the Nutty Chocolate Chip flavor. YUM!
What ONE flavor I’d like to try? Yikes…My first inclination is towards the Honey nut banana, because I love that combination. My husband is very interested in the maple pumpkin!
The Nutty Chocolate Chip really appeals to me! Really enjoy your site and just bought my first yoga video and yoga book (Athlete’s Guide to Yoga) to help me with my running.
Am a little anxious to try it because I have NO flexiblity!! :-0
nutty choc chip.. without a question
as I sit here right now eating “adult” ants on a log.. aka… beanut butter on carrots (with a “healthy” serving of choc chips)
Wow…how to decide., they all sound delicious. I think I would have to go with Honey Banana Nut as that is my go to breakfast on an english muffin. I love that Better Butter products are sourced from the Philly area!
I would like to try the Honey Nut Banana – I eat gluten free waffles in the morning and this would be fantastic on top!
The Nutty Chocolate Chip sounds yummy!
Nutty Chocolate Chip! Yummm!! great giveaway!
I would DIE to try the Honey-nut Banana flavor because it is quite possibly the best paring of two different flavors in the world! The sweetness of the banana and the saltiness and creaminess of the peanut butter go together perfectly!!!!
I would love to try the Honey-nut Banana. Oh my goodness they all sound sooo delicious! I would put them in oatmeal or on a slice of bread for a yummy snack. Love your site Jen! Thanks for being such a great inspiration!!!
I am a pumpkin fanatic; I have designated “pumpkin season” (October-November) where I sneak pumpkin into almost every meal! I would love to try the Maple Pumpkin Butter. And the decrease in calories does not really matter to me; I am more concerned about the quality of ingredients and this butter has plenty of them! I would try to recreate those “Maple Pumpkin Granola bars” from the Better Butter site. yumyum!
I would love to try the Honey Nut Banana flavor of Better Butter! This flavor is most appealing because I love peanut butter but do not eat it because of the extreme amount of calories in each serving. It is particularly difficult for me to restrict myself to one serving too. I’m a fan of anything honey nut 🙂 Thanks for the offer and information on a new product!
I want to try the honey nut banana.
Nothing more delicious to me than the combination of peanuts and bananas, so Honey Nut Butter indeed! Thanks for introducing us to these product!
This sounds so yummy!! Honey Nut Banana sounds like a combo of all my favorite flavors!
What a great product! I would love Honey Nut Banana since my usual morning breakfast consists of oatmeal with bananas, peanut butter and a little agave nectar. Also, I bet it would be delicious on top of pancakes!
This is a toss-up for me! I could not decide between the Honey Nut Banana and the Nutty Chocolate Chip! Both sound amazing!
With my undying love of all nut butters, I would LOVE to try the Honey Nut Banana Butter…two of my favorite things in one place again! This is a great idea Jen!
I am obsessed with any kind of nut butter, but I have to say I would love to try the Maple Pumpkin. They all look delicious! Love your blog!
I would like all the flavors I think, but the maple pumpkins sounds to die for!
The Maple Pumpkin sounds amazing for that morning oatmeal in cold NY 🙂
The Honey Nut Banana sounds amazing! I’d add it to some greek yogurt and top it with granola for a quick breakfast (that I would shovel in while feeding two kiddos.) Love the concept, and I bet it tastes great!
Thanks for a fun giveaway.
Melissa
Oh man some honey nut banana on my waffles in the morning? Sounds ridiculous. And by ridiculous I mean awesome.
Please, I’ve really mean it when I say I want to win this giveaway more than any one I’ve ever entered!!! I want to try all 3 flavors, but I’d love to try the honey nut banana. I’d put it in my oatmeal, on toast, on well… whatever I could find!
I would try the Nutty Chocolate Chip! Sounds delish, and what better way than to slather them in between two slices of bread 😉
is this even a question??? homey nut banana in my morning oats would rock my world.
Nutty chocolate chip sounds amazing!
The Maple Pumpkin sounds delish to me!
I am 100% torn between the honey nut banana and the nutty chocolate chip. I really cannot choose between the two! This looks like a great product. Awesome giveaway!
I think I’d like honey nut banana. I’ve never seen this stuff in stores but I’m going to keep my eyes out for it!
I’d love to try the nutty chocolate chip flavor!
Honey and Banana? What’s not to love about those two. All natural is the way to go and this looks like someone that is doing it right.
May Canadians enter? I’d like to try the Nutty Chocolate Chip because I’m craving chocolate right now (but the other flavours look amazing too!).
Honey nut on toasted bread!
I absolutely love anything pumpkin and my husband is a pb addict, and loves chocolate. So I would love to try the maple pumpkin flavor OR the nutty chocolate chip–both sound terriffic!
