Abstract
Nut spreads, especially peanut butters, having a relatively low viscosity of about 2000 centipoise or less that have significantly reduced stickiness, yet maintain desired nut flavor intensity. These nut spreads are obtained by high shear mixing a mixture of nut paste, added oil, plus any other nut spread ingredients such as salt, sugar, nut butter stabilizer and emulsifier, to reduce the viscosity of the spread to about 2000 centipoise or less.
