Homemade Peanut Butter

So as I was writing the last recipe I realized peanut butter is so easy to make at home just like applesauce! An everybody must have!

We started making our own when we lived in Oregon at whole foods or Fred Meyers. They had a section where you'd choose you nuts the put them through the machine with oil, and boom fresh peanut butter!

So I decided to start making my own from home once I was having a hard time finding true GF peanut butter I could eat. And it was amazing!! I used it for a GF peanut butter cookie that was just to die for! (I'll have to post that too!)


Ingredients
15 ounces shelled and roasted peanuts or of your choice. (I've used honey roasted which was good too!)

1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons honey
1 1/2 tablespoons peanut oil or vegetable oil

Directions
Place the peanuts, salt and honey into the bowl of a food processor. Process for 1 minute. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Place the lid back on and continue to process while slowly drizzling in the oil and process until the mixture is smooth, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Place the peanut butter in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 months.

Yummm!! No junk added!
