HOMEMADE PEANUT BUTTER Recipe

  American Sauces

Ingredients:
Here are two recipes:

HOMEMADE PEANUT BUTTER

2 cups roasted, shelled unsalted peanuts (without red skins)
1 tablespoon peanut oil (optional)

Place peanuts in a food processor. Blend continuously for 2 or 3 minutes. The ground peanuts will form a ball which will slowly disappear. If necessary, stop machine and scrape sides of container with a rubber spatula. Continue to process until mixture becomes spreadable. Add peanut oil if needed to make it sufficiently spreadable.

(For Crunchy: When desired consistency has been reached, stir in 1/2 cup chopped roasted peanuts for crunchy style peanut butter).

Place mixture in a tightly closed container and store in the refrigerator. During storage, oil may rise to the top; if this occurs, stir before using.

Makes 1 cup smooth or 1 1/2 cups crunchy peanut butter.

Homemade Peanut Butter

1 bag of peanuts in the shell
Peanut oil (optional)
Salt, to taste (optional)

Shell all the peanuts. Remove the red skins. Chop the peanuts in a blender or food processor until smooth. Add a few teaspoons of peanut oil, if needed to make smooth and spreadable.
