Homemade Peanut Butter


Making your own peanut butter is so easy and you know exactly what is in it. And it can be cheaper than buying the "all-natural" kind.
I get organic roasted peanuts at Nature's Pantry for about $2 a pound. I get a few pounds at a time. If you don't think you'll use all you get in a timely manner they freeze well. I fill my blender cup a little less than halfway. You don't have to add any oil because the peanuts will release their own oil as they mash up. It will take awhile. Your husband will come in the kitchen, peer in the blender and suggest its not going to work. But don't worry- it will! 
You can make it as crunchy or smooth as you like - the longer it blends, the smoother it gets. Then just scoop it out into a mason jar or into the empty peanut butter jar
