Ingredients
- 2 cups Roasted peanuts
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1 tablespoon Honey or maple syrup (optional)
- 1 tablespoon Neutral-flavored oil (e.g., peanut or vegetable oil)
Directions
Step 1
Place 1 1/2 cups of the roasted peanuts into a food processor, reserving the remaining 1/2 cup.
Step 2
Process the peanuts in the food processor on high speed for about 2-4 minutes, stopping occasionally to scrape the sides. The peanuts will transform from a crumbly texture to a smooth butter as their natural oils are released.
Step 3
Add the salt, honey or maple syrup (if using), and oil to the food processor. Process for another 30 seconds to 1 minute until the mixture is creamy and well combined.
Step 4
Chop the reserved 1/2 cup of roasted peanuts into small pieces to create the crunchy texture. You can do this by pulsing the peanuts in the food processor a few times or chopping them with a knife.
Step 5
Stir the chopped peanuts into the creamy peanut butter mixture until evenly distributed.
Step 6
Transfer the crunchy peanut butter spread to an airtight container or jar, and store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
