This creamy, sweet, fluffy three-ingredient peanut butter spread was a fun discovery when we moved to Amish country a few years ago. The kids fell in love with it as soon as they tasted it.

Amish Peanut Butter

When we first moved to Ohio, my youngest son was fascinated by the Amish peanut butter that was on the table at the restaurant where we stopped for dinner one night. He slathered it on his biscuit and declared it “utterly delicious.”

So, you can imagine his excitement when he spied that cute tiny jar of peanut butter spread at the grocery store a few weeks later. I bought it for him once before deciding that we needed to be making this at home – in a much larger quantity.

Amish Peanut Butter Spread Recipe

It doesn’t get much simpler than this recipe. Start by combining the peanut butter, corn syrup, and marshmallow creme in a bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth, fluffy, and thoroughly combined.

Transfer to a jar or airtight container and store in the refrigerator. For ease in spreading, allow the spread to warm to room temperature before serving.

What is Peanut Butter Spread?

When it comes to topping their pancakes or toast, “lightly” isn’t the word I’d use to describe the way my boys like to use this spread.

We’re dedicated pancake lovers and fans of all things peanut butter around here, so this Amish peanut butter spread? It’s a huge win for all of us.

It’s not just for pancakes though! Try it on toast, cornbread, biscuits, or dinner rolls. Dip apple slices into it or maybe just grab a spoon? Just saying, we may have done that too.
