Peanut butter isn't a pure fat. I has ground peanut meat as well as the fat that's in the peanuts. Butter is almost pure fat. When baking peanut butter is usually more of a flavoring but since it has so much fat in it, the butter or shortening in the recipe is reduced. You can trade peanut butter for fat since it's not all fat.

Can you be allergic to peanuts but not peanut butter?

It occurs rarely, but yes. There are two types of peanut allergies based on the hosts reaction to the protein in the peanut. The majority of allergies are full blown, but some react differently when the protein structure is changed (e.g. creamed or whipped). You can be allergic to the protein itself, or the particular structure of the protein. This is a new study, so more information is being collected, but early studies are showing positive results.
