Homemade Peanut Butter Recipe
Homemade Peanut Butter Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 cups (300 g) roasted unsalted peanuts
- 1–2 tbsp peanut oil or neutral oil (optional, for a smoother texture)
- 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional)
- 1/4 tsp salt (or to taste)
Instructions
- Add the roasted peanuts to a food processor.
- Blend for 3–5 minutes, stopping occasionally to scrape down the sides. The peanuts will go from crumbs to a thick paste, then become smooth and creamy.
- Add the oil if needed for a creamier consistency.
- Mix in the honey and salt, then blend for another 30–60 seconds until fully combined.
- Transfer the peanut butter to a clean, airtight jar.
Time & Temperature
- Preparation Time: 5 minutes
- Blend Time: 3–6 minutes
- Cooking Temperature: None (use roasted peanuts)
Storage
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 month, or at room temperature for 1–2 weeks if your kitchen is cool.
