Frequently Asked Questions About Lotus Biscoff spread

Can you bake with Lotus Biscoff spread?
Yes, Lotus Biscoff spread can be mixed into cakes, brownies and cookies or used as a filling or topping. Replacing the sugar or fat in a recipe with it may change the texture, so recipes developed for the spread are the most predictable.
What is the difference between smooth and crunchy Lotus Biscoff spread?

Can Lotus Biscoff spread be used instead of peanut butter?
Lotus Biscoff spread can replace peanut butter when a recipe needs a spreadable filling, but it will make the result much sweeter and give it a caramelized-biscuit flavor. It may not work as a direct swap in recipes that rely on peanut butter’s flavor or texture.
How do you make homemade Lotus Biscoff-style spread?
To make a homemade version, blend caramelized biscuits with vegetable oil and a little liquid until smooth. Add the liquid gradually to control the consistency. The result can resemble Lotus Biscoff spread, though it may not taste or keep exactly like the packaged product.
Is Lotus Biscoff spread a healthy everyday breakfast food?
Lotus Biscoff spread is best treated as a sweet spread rather than a breakfast staple, since it is made mainly from biscuits and sugar. For a more balanced breakfast, pair a small amount with foods that provide protein and fibre.

What is Lotus Biscoff spread?
Lotus Biscoff spread is a sweet, smooth paste made from the brand’s caramelised biscuits, which originated in Belgium. It carries their toasty, gently spiced caramel flavour; some versions have a slightly crunchy texture.
In Belgium and elsewhere, it is spread on toast or eaten with biscuits, and it is also used as a filling or topping for cakes, pancakes and other desserts. English-speaking households often use it much like other sweet spreads, especially for a quick breakfast or baking. It is mainly a source of carbohydrate and fat, with little protein or fibre; 100 g provides 584 calories. Its sweetness is concentrated, so a thin layer goes a long way, and it pairs well with sliced fruit or plain yoghurt.
