Description

This ultra-simple recipe transforms freshly roasted peanuts into a luxurious, creamy spread without any additives or preservatives. By using only high-quality peanuts and a touch of peanut oil, you control the exact texture and saltiness of your final product. The result is a rich, nutty flavor that far surpasses store-bought jars. Perfect for spreading on toast, blending into smoothies, or using as a dip for fresh fruit, this DIY version is incredibly versatile. It makes a thoughtful, wholesome gift or a quick pantry staple. Whether you are watching for hidden sugars or simply prefer the purity of whole foods, this method delivers superior taste and texture in minutes.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Place the freshly roasted peanuts into the container of a high-speed blender or food processor.
  2. Add 1-1/2 tablespoons of peanut oil to the peanuts.
  3. Blend the mixture on high speed, scraping down the sides of the container as needed.
  4. Continue blending until the mixture turns from a coarse meal into a smooth, creamy paste.
  5. If the mixture is too thick, add additional peanut oil one tablespoon at a time until desired consistency is reached.
  6. Taste the peanut butter and add 1/2 teaspoon of salt if the peanuts were unsalted.
  7. Blend briefly again to incorporate the salt evenly.
  8. Transfer to an airtight jar and store at room temperature.
