Homemade Peanut Butter
Be the first to rate it
Salted roasted peanuts and a spoonful of peanut oil whirled into smooth, spreadable peanut butter in a few minutes.
Ingredients
- 1½ cups salted roasted peanuts
- 1 tablespoon peanut oil
Equipment
- food processor
- airtight jar
Directions
- Put the peanuts and peanut oil in a food processor.
- Process until the nuts turn from crumbs to a smooth, spreadable butter, stopping now and then to scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula so every peanut gets ground.
- Spoon into a clean jar with a lid.
Notes
Keep it in the refrigerator and use it within 2 weeks. Without the stabilizers in store-bought peanut butter, a little oil may rise to the top; just stir it back in.
