Maybe your trouble is the bread. Wholemeal are carbs and carbs are sugar. The sugarless peanut butter should not be causing any sugar crashes.

Caveat. Not a trained specialist here. Just someone who has been trying to sort my issues out and wanting to share.

    complex carbs are not comparable to simpler sugars, the body has to do a significant amount of processing to turn the carbs into readily usable sugar.
    You also need carbs in your diet, it's the main fuel source for the body and it's difficult to avoid anyways (all vegetables have loads of carbs, even peanuts are 17% carbs.
