Buy peanuts in bulk and make your own creamy peanut butter at home in under 10 minutes! Do it plain, or flavor it up however you like – cinnamon vanilla is our favorite & delicious on everything!
I buy bulk unsalted roasted peanuts (you can also use raw!) at our local health food store, and they’re honestly really easy to find. They’re also SO much less expensive to purchase in bulk & blend up on your own. SO worth the few minutes it takes!
Not only is homemade peanut butter a money saver, but the fresh flavor and ultra creamy texture cannot be beat. I promise – once you make your own, you’ll never go back!
You can add sweetener to yours, like honey, or leave it plain. Flavor it up like we do with cinnamon & vanilla extract, or just do a traditional salted. You cannot go wrong! Saves beautifully at room temp for about 1 month, or fridge for up to 3 months.
Homemade Peanut Butter
Equipment
- food processor or high speed blender
Ingredients
- 4 cups roasted peanuts raw works too!
- 1/2 tsp salt
Optional Mix-Ins
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1-2 tsp vanilla extract to taste
- 1 tsp cinnamon
Instructions
- Add the peanuts to a food processor and turn on for about 1 minute. Use a spatula to scrape down the sides, then repeat until the peanuts become creamy and smooth (about 8 minutes).
- Once it reaches the consistency you like, flavor it up with your mix-ins if using. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 month at room temperature in a cool dark place (pantry is great!) or up to 3 months in the refrigerator.
