Homemade Peanut Butter - So Easy and So Delicious
This is the recipe I grew up with and I've never found one I like better.
Preparation:
Blend 1 cup roasted, unsalted, shelled peanuts in a food processor or blender adding just enough peanut or safflower oil to make it smooth. (1-1/2 to 3 tbsp). We always add 1/2 tsp of salt.
Add sugar or honey to taste, if desired.
If you want a chunkier butter, you can add chopped peanuts after you have made the smooth version.
Store your peanut butter in an airtight container in the refrigerator and use within 2 weeks.
This recipe makes about 1-1/2 cups.
You won't believe how fresh this tastes compared to the processed brands you buy off the shelf.
Enjoy.
