Homemade peanut butter

Today I have a recipe for you. It's super easy to make, maybe even too easy to write a post about it, but however, here it is.
Last week I made my first homemade peanut butter. I eat only 100% natural peanut butter, with no added sugar, no salt, no oils. You only need roasted peanuts and a good food processor.


I bought peanuts in shell and I think next time I'll just buy "ready to use" peanuts, peeling almost drove me nuts. :)
Put all the peanuts in the food processor and blend until you get a thick, but pasty consistency. You will maybe need to scrape the sides of a food processor, if any peanuts stick to the bowl and then process again. You will see when it will be all combined. If consistency is too thick, you can add a little bit of water.

When your peanut butter is made, you put it in to airtight container.

Et voila, your first (if it's first) homemade peanut butter is ready to be eaten! 


Do you like peanut butter? Make sure you don't eat too much of it (like me) :).

  2. Jaz sem enkrat kupljenga probala pa mi ni bil čisto nič všeč, kar je zelo zanimivo glede na to, da sem bla takrat obsedena z arašidi. :D

    1. Haha. I'm an addict too. I used to eat whole jar at once and your mouth gets all sticky from it. haha
      But it got expensive, so I decided to do homemade to save some money. :)
