This is how I make peanut butter. Two packets of salted peanuts in a Kenwood Chef, whizz until the required texture is achieved. I put it in the fridge just as it is, and dip into it whenever I fancy some.
It stiffens up a bit in the fridge so if you want it soft whizz for a bit longer. If you want it crunchy whizz for less time.
I tried it with plain unsalted peanuts, it works. I also washed the salt from the peanuts and dried them in a clean tea towel. That works also. It's a matter of try it and see which method suits you best. You can add a spoon of oil, but there is no need, there is enough oil in the nuts.
Looks like good walking weather so I am off for a ramble.
Catch ya later. Toodle pip. ilona
I used to make peanut butter, but had forgotten I did until I read your post!
ReplyDeleteI have to admit that I found the peanuts at the back of the cupboard. They were out of date so this prompted me to use them.
DeleteThanks Illona, will definitely give this a try x
ReplyDeleteThe only peanut butter I buy is from Aldi and is 100% peanuts nothing else. A lot of the manufacturers changed to using plastic jars instead of glass, and adding palm oil.

ReplyDeleteIt works really well. Of course it can be put into a clean jar. I am too lazy for that.
