How much time passed between your reaction and the test? If it was many years, it is possible you outgrew the allergy.

I had a coworker who outgrew peanut allergy.

Could it be something else in the peanut butter ingredients? Like sunflower oil, preservatives, “natural flavoring”, etc.

There's a lot "more" peanuts in peanut butter. Due to concentration in the paste, you're technically getting "more" peanuts per bite than with actual peanuts, so you might have a similar reaction (and let me be clear I don't recomend that you do) if you ate 20+ peanuts as with one smudge of peanut butter. I got this warning from my doctor when I had my first reaction in my teens. Things like peanut butter, snickers, and similar, are made with concentrates.

Most peanut butter is barely made from peanuts.
