Peanut butter — people can't get enough of it. But chances are, you're storing it all wrong.

As any true PB fan will know, the oil from the nut always separates and sits on top, meaning every time you want to tuck into your fave nutty spread you have to painstakingly stir it back together,

But now a food blogger has shared a hack that will banish that annoyance for good — and it's so simple, you'll kick yourself for not thinking of it first.

According to the mastermind behind Pure Wow, the answer is storing the jar upside down, news.com.au reports.

She explained the technique in a mind-blowing post: "Here's why. Assuming you're eating natural peanut butter, you've probably noticed that the oil has a tendency to settle on the top, and requires a hearty stir each time you uncap.

@LeBatardShow @billygil store your nutella and peanut butter upside down so you never have to deal with the oil separating. Just like they do with a lot of ketchups now.
