Ingredients

• 2 cups unsalted roasted peanuts
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 tablespoon peanut oil (or vegetable oil)
• 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
• 0.125 teaspoon salt

Directions

Step 1

Place the unsalted roasted peanuts in a food processor and begin processing. Run the processor until the peanuts break down into a crumbly mixture.

Step 2

Pause the processor and scrape down the sides to ensure all peanuts are evenly processed. Continue to process, and the mixture will start to smooth out.

Step 3

After the mixture looks relatively smooth, add the honey, peanut oil, vanilla extract (if using), and salt. Process again for 1-2 minutes until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.

Step 4

Taste the peanut butter. Adjust sweetness or salt to your preference by adding more honey or a pinch more salt, if necessary.

Step 5

Transfer the peanut butter into an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.

Step 6

Stir well before using, as natural oils may separate over time.
