Homemade Peanut Butter
Hello food lovers! Today's recipe borders around making peanut butter at home using only a few ingredients.
Ingredients
- 2 Cups of Unsalted Roasted Peanuts (about 200-300g)
- 1-2 Teaspoons of White Sugar (to taste)
- Pinch of Salt (to taste)
- 1-2 Tablespoons of Vegetable Oil
Instructions
- First, know that for this recipe, you will need a food processor. We do not recommend using a blender, unless you are absolutely certain that you've got a very powerful blender. Most blenders aren't strong enough to handle this process.
- Now, into the food processor, add your unsalted peanuts. Gently crush up the peanuts. You'll notice that it is well ground now, but it isn't sticky yet. Next, we'll add a bit of sugar and a pinch of salt. Next, add 1 Tablespoon of Vegetable oil. Now, as before, grind until it's smooth.
- Add more oil and grind again. After that is done, open it up and have a taste if you must. Check and adjust the ingredients as you see fit, if it requires more salt, then do so.
- Now, transfer the butter into an airtight container. If you want a thicker or thinner peanut butter, use a little less oil for a thicker result and more oil for a thinner result.
- You can keep it in the fridge to chill until you're ready to use. It's best to keep it in the fridge to preserve it for longer. Enjoy.
