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.
