I love peanut butter. Its creamy, nutty flavor is incredibly comforting when slathered on bread or eaten straight from the jar. Though when I'm eating it, I can't help but shudder a little bit when reading the back of the jar. Between the calories and sugar it kind of starts to chip away at my good time. So I decided to make a healthy version at home. It has only one ingredient, roasted peanuts. It's so easy and fun to make your own. I don't know what took me so long!
Ingredients for Natural Peanut Butter:
*16 ounces roasted, shelled, and unsalted peanuts
* I'm happy without any salt but feel free to use salted peanuts or a mixture of unsalted and salted.
Time-Saving Tip: Prepare the peanut butter a day in advance.
Let's see what we need.
We're ready to cook.
Watch me make homemade peanut butter in minutes!
Process the peanuts until you reach the desired creaminess and then transfer to a jar.
It's ready! Look how delicious the peanut butter looks and there is no label with a long list of ingredients to read. I love it, and now I can enjoy it slathered on bread and spoonfuls right out of the jar.
Enjoy!
