Homemade Peanut Butter
Learn to make homemade peanut butter with just two ingredients.
Equipment
- 1 High speed blender
- 1 storage jar
Ingredients
- 16 ounces of dry roasted peanuts
- 1 pinch of salt
Instructions
- Place all the peanuts in your food processor and blend for 8-10 minutes. Every 2-3 minutes you may need to stop the processor and use a spoon to break up the peanuts/scrap down the sides of the bowl.
- At first the mixture will get crumbly/powder-y… just keep on processing because it will turn creamy! Depending on the freshness of your peanuts you may need to add a teaspoon or two of oil (canola, vegetable or peanut oil work well) but it usually is not necessary. Once your peanut butter is creamy, taste it and add a bit of salt if you like.
- Store in an air tight container in your refrigerator for up to a month. If you've ever bought natural peanut butter before you've probably noticed that sometimes a little oil seperation occurs-that's normal, just stir your peanut butter before use if you notice this happens.
Notes
-Use other nuts such as almonds or hazelnuts.
-Store in your fridge for up to one month.
-If you want sweeter peanut butter you can add sugar or honey to your mixture (to taste).
