1 tablespoon of peanut butter as an afternoon snack. With or without bread or crackers. Nut butters would kill me due to allergies. Tahinni is a good alternative, as long as I make it myself.
I discovered that Canadian Peanut Butter has less sugar than the US brands.

Is it good to eat peanut butter on low fat diet
Peanut butter is a staple in many households, but at 16 grams of fat and around 200 calories per two-tablespoon serving, peanut butter is obviously not a low-fat, low-calorie food. But before we cross peanut butter off our list, there are some pluses that mean we can spread some on our toast or sliced apples from time to time. Apart from being a good source of vitamin E, folic acid, niacin, and phosphorous, most (but not all) of the fat in peanut butter is the heart-healthy monounsaturated kind; plus, it contains no cholesterol.
