Equipment

  • Food Processor
  • Silicon Spatula
  • Mason Jar with Lid

Ingredients

  • 16 ounces Dry Roasted, Unsalted Peanuts
  • 1/2 tsp Salt

Instructions

  • Add the peanuts and salt into the bowl of your food processor.
  • Turn on high and process for 3 minutes for creamy peanut butter.
  • If you prefer crunchy peanut butter, process or 2 minutes.
  • Note: After 1 minute of processing, the mixture will appear dry, crumbly, and come into a large ball.
  • Continue processing until your preferred texture is achieved.
  • You may need to scrape the sides of the bowl down 1-2 times during processing.
  • Depending on your particular food processor, processing times may vary. If your peanut butter isn't creamy after 3 minutes, continue to process.

Notes

Store homemade peanut butter in a mason jar with a tight fitting lid on the counter for 1-2 weeks.
Store in the fridge for 1-2 months.
