Ingredients (Makes about 1 cup):

  • 2 cups roasted peanuts (unsalted or lightly salted)
  • 1–2 tbsp honey (optional, for sweetness)
  • 1–2 tbsp peanut oil (or neutral oil like vegetable or coconut oil)

Instructions:

Step 1: Blend the Peanuts

  1. Place the roasted peanuts in a food processor or high-speed blender.
  2. Blend on high for 1–2 minutes, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed.

Step 2: Add Sweetener and Oil

  1. Once the peanuts are finely ground and starting to form a paste, add:
    • Honey for sweetness (if desired)
    • Oil, one tablespoon at a time, until the peanut butter reaches your preferred consistency.

Step 3: Blend Until Smooth

  1. Continue blending until the mixture is smooth and creamy. This may take 2–4 minutes.

Step 4: Store and Enjoy

  1. Transfer the peanut butter to an airtight container or jar.
  2. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2–3 weeks.

Tips:

  • Crunchy Version: Reserve a handful of peanuts, chop coarsely, and stir them into the smooth peanut butter.
  • Salted Option: Add a pinch of salt if using unsalted peanuts.
  • Add Flavor: Mix in a dash of cinnamon or cocoa powder for a unique twist.
