What to know about Amul Creamy Spread Peanut Butter
A 91% peanut spread that is dense in calories
Amul Creamy Spread Peanut Butter is a smooth spread built from roasted peanut (91%), sugar (5%), groundnut oil, iodized salt and one stabilizer (471). It is bought for breakfast toast, smoothies and quick snacks by people who want a protein-rich spread without a long ingredient list.
Per 100 g it gives 26 g protein, 6.5 g total sugar (5 g added) and 155 mg sodium. It also gives 624 kcal, 50 g fat and 12 g saturated fat. The pack serve is 30 g, which is 187 kcal, 7.8 g protein and 3.6 g saturated fat, and a jar holds about 10 servings.
The front says Low Sugar and 26% Protein, and both agree with the panel: added sugar is 5 g per 100 g and protein is 26 g. What the front does not say is how much energy and saturated fat come with that protein. CleanPlate scores it EA4.
Why Amul Creamy Spread Peanut Butter scores EA4
Nutrition is an E because the spread is dense in calories and declares no fibre or vitamins. Ingredients are an A on a short list, and risk is a 4 on 624 kcal and 12 g saturated fat per 100 g.
Very low nutrient density
- Protein
- 26 g
- Fibre
- Not declared
- Vitamins and minerals
- None declared
- Energy
- 624 kcal
01 Nutrition density: why E
Protein is 26 g per 100 g, mostly from the roasted peanut, so a 30 g serve gives 7.8 g. That is the only thing that earns credit.
No fibre figure or vitamins and minerals are declared, so little else adds to the grade. Energy is 624 kcal per 100 g, which leaves the nutrition grade low.
Scored on protein, fibre and twelve vitamins and minerals, against the Codex and FSSAI "source" and "high" levels, per 100 g and per 100 kcal. Protein also has to supply at least 12.5% of the calories to count, and 25% for full credit.
Clean, minimally processed

- sugar
- Additives

- Flagged
- None
02 Ingredient integrity: why A
The list is short and plain: roasted peanut at 91%, sugar at 5%, groundnut oil, iodized salt and a stabilizer. No hydrogenated fat is listed, so the 0 g trans fat is accepted.
The only additive is the stabilizer 471 (mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids), which costs ingredient points, but only a small amount. The front claims check out, so nothing is lost for a hollow promise.
Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.
High risk
- Added sugar
- 5 g
- Sodium
- 155 mg
- Saturated fat
- 12 g
- Trans fat
- 0 g
03 Load risk: why 4
Energy is the biggest driver at 624 kcal per 100 g, followed by saturated fat at 12 g per 100 g, well over the 5 g high line. One 30 g serve has 3.6 g.
Sodium at 155 mg per 100 g and added sugar at 5 g per 100 g add little. Trans fat is 0 g. The risk number lands on a 4.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.

Does Amul Creamy Spread Peanut Butter live up to its claims?
Low Sugar and 26% Protein both hold: added sugar is 5 g per 100 g and protein is 26 g. Nothing on the pack is hollow, so there is no [L] flag.
- On the packHolds
“Low Sugar”
Added sugar is 5 g per 100 g and total sugar is 6.5 g, so a 30 g serve has 1.5 g added sugar.
- On the packHolds
“26% Protein”
The panel shows 26 g protein per 100 g, which is 7.8 g in a 30 g serve. Roasted peanut at 91% supplies most of it.
- Product nameHolds
“Creamy”
The name describes a smooth texture, and the ingredient list has nothing that conflicts with it. The back notes that oil separation is natural and the jar needs a stir.
What's in Amul Creamy Spread Peanut Butter?
Roasted peanut at 91% leads a very short list, followed by sugar, groundnut oil, salt and one stabilizer. The saturated fat and the calories are what to watch.
The ingredient list, read for you
Roasted peanut (91%) leads by a wide margin, so this is mostly peanut paste. Sugar (5%) sweetens it, groundnut oil adds smoothness, iodized salt seasons it, and stabilizer 471 helps keep the oil from separating.
Ingredients to watch
- Saturated fatConcern
12 g per 100 g, more than twice the 5 g high line. One 30 g serve has 3.6 g.
- Calorie densityConcern
624 kcal per 100 g and 187 kcal per 30 g serve. This is the largest part of the risk number.
- Stabilizer 471Worth watching
Mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids. It costs a small number of ingredient points.
- Added sugarFine
5 g per 100 g, about 1.5 g per serve, from the sugar at 5% of the recipe.
- ProteinFine
26 g per 100 g, 7.8 g per 30 g serve, mostly from the roasted peanut.
What it doesn’t have
- No fibre figure is declared on the panel.
- No vitamins or minerals are declared.
