Homemade Peanut Butter

You can easily make delicious peanut butter at home with minimal time and effort.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups unsalted, shelled peanuts
• 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt (or more, to taste)
• 1 teaspoon honey (or more, to taste)
• 1 to 3 teaspoons oil (as needed)

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C). Spread the peanuts on a baking sheet with a small rim.
2. Roast the peanuts for 3 minutes, shake the baking sheet, then roast for another 3 to 5 minutes, or until they turn golden and fragrant.
3. Let the peanuts cool slightly, then transfer them to a blender or food processor. Blend for about 4 minutes, until the peanut butter is smooth and shiny.
4. Add the desired amount of salt and honey, then blend until combined.
5. Check the consistency. If it’s too thick, add oil one teaspoon at a time, blending after each addition, until you reach the desired texture.
