How to make a Peanut Butter

This will give you a delicious and healthy basic peanut butter. Peanut butter is available in smooth, chunky  natural, reduced-fat, no sugar added, and even swirled with jelly for those time-challenged consumers.If flavouring with a spice, add to peanuts in processor - this will be to your own taste, so you'll have to experiment with ratios yourself.

Ingredients of Peanut Butter:

  • 1 cup roasted, unsalted, shelled peanuts
  • 1-1/2 to 3 tablespoons peanut or safflower oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Sugar to taste, optional

Preparation:

Blend in blender adding just enough oil to make it smooth. You can use salted peanuts and omit the salt, or omit the salt entirely with unsalted peanuts. Add sugar to taste, if desired.

If you want chunky peanut butter, add chopped peanuts after you have made the smooth version.
