Is It Worth the Price?
At $2.99, the PB & J Donut costs more than the classic donuts around it. In return, you get a filled center, icing and a peanut topping, which gives it more going on than a plain or glazed donut. It makes the most sense when you specifically want the peanut butter and jam combination, and it is less compelling if you simply want a quick, inexpensive donut.
What is in It?
A soft yeast-raised donut carries two familiar flavors, peanut butter and raspberry. Crushed peanuts finish it off.
| Ingredient | Purpose or Flavor Contribution |
|---|---|
| Yeast-Raised Donut Dough | Made with enriched wheat flour and shortening, it gives the donut its soft, classic base. |
| Raspberry Jam | The filling brings a fruity, slightly tart contrast to the richer toppings. |
| Peanut Butter-Flavored Icing | This smooth layer gives the donut its nutty, creamy character. |
| Crushed Peanuts | They add crunch and a fuller peanut taste, so anyone avoiding peanuts should skip this one. |
The Bottom Line
The Tim Hortons PB & J Donut is a good pick when you want a nostalgic, nutty and fruity treat. Its biggest strength is the flavor combination, with creamy peanut butter, raspberry jam and a peanut crunch in every bite. Its biggest drawback is its higher price and calorie count compared with the other donuts, along with a fat content worth keeping in mind.
It suits anyone who enjoys the classic peanut butter and jelly pairing and wants a moderately sweet snack with a little protein. The value is fair for a filled, topped donut, as long as you choose it for the flavor. If you are still deciding what to order, the Tim Hortons Full Menu is a useful place to browse. Order it when the craving for peanut butter and jam hits.
