An old recipe I’ve made off and on since 2010, and now that peanut butter is sold out everywhere during the pandemic I’ve been making this regularly. Amelia gave tasting notes and I kept modifying the recipe until we settled on this one: Not as sweet as Jiff and not so bland as natural, with a little cinnamon kick.
Grump Pup's Peanut Butts (Peanut Butter)
Ingredients
- 2 lbs peanuts roasted, unsalted
- 3/4 tsp salt or more to taste
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon ground
- 4 tbsp peanut oil less if you like your pb thick
Instructions
Blender
- Put it all in a blender. Blend it up, scraping the sides with a spatula to get it going. Don't give up, and let the motor rest if it gets hot. It will eventually blend like a thick smoothie once it gets fine & hot. I don't have a food processor, but I hear it's much faster.
Food processor
- edit: Now that I have a food processor it's so easy! Just turn it on and let it go until it's your desired smoothness - I prefer a fast moving tornado (about 2 to 3 minutes). No need to pulse, no need to let it cool.
