Here’s a simple, homemade peanut butter recipe you can make in minutes:
Ingredients
2 cups roasted peanuts (unsalted or lightly salted)
1–2 teaspoons oil (optional, like peanut or vegetable oil)
½ teaspoon salt (optional, to taste)
1–2 teaspoons sugar or honey (optional, for sweetness)
Instructions
Add peanuts to a blender/food processor
Use a high-speed blender or food processor for best results.
Blend in stages
First: peanuts turn crumbly
Then: thick paste
Finally: smooth and creamy (takes ~3–5 minutes)
Scrape sides as needed
Stop occasionally and scrape down the mixture.
Adjust texture & taste
Add oil if you want it smoother
Add salt or sweetener to your preference
Store
Transfer to a jar and store in the fridge for up to 2–3 weeks.
Tips
For crunchy peanut butter, mix in some chopped peanuts at the end
For extra flavor, lightly roast raw peanuts before blending
Avoid over-adding oil—peanuts naturally release their own oils
If you want, I can also show you chocolate peanut butter, healthy (no oil), or gym-friendly high-protein versions.
