Description

Ok, for all of you out there who are obsessed with the peanut-butter-making machine at Whole Foods, I offer you a brilliant new alternative — making your PB at home!!! Seriously, it is ridiculously simple! And, for people like me who take a little too much delight in experimenting with the food processor, it’s also quite entertaining. :)

Ingredients

  • 2 cups Roasted, Shelled, Salted Peanuts
  • 1 Tablespoon Honey Or Agave Nectar
  • 2 Tablespoons Oil, Preferably Peanut Or Vegetable

Preparation

Place the peanuts and honey in a food processor, and process for 1 minute. Use a spatula to loosen mixture from the sides of the bowl if it’s sticking.

Then continue to process while slowly drizzling oil into the mixture for another 2-3 minutes, or until the mixture is smooth, thick and shiny. (Nuts will go from a rough chop, to finely ground, to a thick paste, and then finally a shiny, smooth peanut butter.)

Remove and store in an airtight container, and refrigerate. If mixture is too thick and cool when you’re ready to use it, simply place the container in a warm water bath, or pop your needed amount in the microwave to warm and soften it up.

This is so easy and delicious…and it might even be cheaper than peanut butter. I used canola oil instead of peanut or vegetable oil and the flavor is fine. I will definitely experiment with other nut and oil combinations.
