Blender Peanut Butter
By Easy Recipe Collection
Published:
Making your own peanut butter is healthier and very budget friendly. Try this recipe that uses just a simple blender and shelled peanuts.
Ingredients
1 cup roasted shelled peanuts
1-1/2 teaspoons peanut oil
1/4 teaspoon salt (omit salt if salted peanuts are used)
Directions
Place ingredients in blender. With the lid secured, blend until mixture becomes paste-like or spreadable (3 to 4 minutes). If necessary, stop the machine and use a rubber spatula to scrape mixture from the sides of the container back into contact with the blade. Continue blending until desired consistency is reached.
For crunchy peanut butter, stir in 1/4 cup chopped roasted peanuts after the blending is completed. Store in a tightly closed container in the refrigerator. Oil may rise to the top. If this occurs, stir before using.
Yields 1/2 cup creamy or 3/4 cup crunchy peanut butter.
