A low-fat and low-calorie nut spread having at least about 50% less fat and at least about 33% fewer calories than full-fat peanut butter yet having a flavor and texture comparable to a full-fat nut butter or spread. The nut spread has a non-fat solids to oil ratio that is less than about 2.0:1, comprises nut solids that have a mono-modal particle size distribution where the D and D sizes are less than about 15 and about 30 microns, respectively. The level of fat-free nut solids is from about 34% to about 45%. The apparent viscosity of the nut spread is less than about 4500 cP. The nut spread comprises at least about 20% oil substitute, preferably a sucrose polyester that contains an anal leakage controlling agent. Also disclosed is a preferred process for making the nut spread.
