Homemade Peanut Butter

I thought I would give this a go, and attempt to make my own peanut butter. Here's how I did it:

What you will need:

  • 2 cups of peanuts
  • 2 tablespoons of honey or maple syrup or brown rice syrup (any sweetener will do the trick) 
  • 1-2 tablespoons of oil (preferably peanut oil, but to be honest any food oil can be used in the recipe) 
  • A liquidizer, blender or food processor 
  • Empty jars to store your peanut butter 
Method: 
  • Pour the peanuts into the blender and whizz for aprox 3-4 minutes 
  • Add 1 tablespoon of oil and whizz again for another minute until combined
  • Next add 1 tablespoon of honey and whizz again
  • Repeat this a further time with the other tablespoon of oil & honey
  • Next decide weather you want smooth peanut butter or crunchy peanut butter
  • If you want crunchy peanut butter then all you have to do if pour the mixture into your jars 
  • If you want smooth peanut butter then whizz the mixture up a little more until it is the consistency you require 
  • Any your done, Enjoy ! 

As usual heres a video to help you out:
