Homemade Peanut Butter
Ingredients
- 2 cups unsalted shelled roasted peanuts
- 1/4 to 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 to 2 teaspoons honey
- 1 to 3 teaspoons peanut or vegetable oil
Instructions
-
If you are making crunchy peanut butter, add 1/3 cup of the roasted peanuts to the bowl of a food processor. Pulse 6 to 8 times, or until the peanuts are chopped into very small pieces. Transfer chopped peanuts to a bowl and reserve for later.
-
Add the roasted peanuts to the bowl of a food processor. Process 1 minute then scrape sides of bowl with a rubber spatula. Process another 2 to 3 minutes until the peanut butter is shiny and smooth.
-
Add your desired amount of salt and honey then process until combined. Check the consistency, if it seems too thick, add oil, a teaspoon at a time, until you are happy with it. For crunchy peanut butter, stir in the reserved peanuts.
