Blender Peanut Butter

Yield: 1/2 cup creamy or 3/4 cup crunchy peanut

Ingredients

1 cup roasted shelled peanuts

1-1/2 teaspoons peanut oil

1/4 teaspoon salt (omit salt if salted peanuts are used)

1/4 cup chopped, roasted peanuts (optional)

Add To

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. 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.
