One-ingredient Peanut Butter

I’ve never been a peanut butter fan until I made this. It definitely is a game changer!!

No additives, preservatives, stabilizers, salt or oil. Just peanuts.

Peanut butter is not only a spread on toast. It is also used to make peanut sauce for satays/skewers, spring rolls and even noodles. You can make jars and jars of these natural nut butter and refrigerate for up to 6 months.

This may be the best peanut butter you’ve ever had and you will not buy another JIF or Skippy peanut butter again ;)

Ingredients

• 2 ½ cup roasted peanuts

• 1 Tbsp agave or honey (optional)

Instructions

1. Prep

Since I get roasted peanuts from Costco or Sam’s Club, they are often salted. Sift off the extra salt from the peanuts then add into a food processor.

2. Blend

Blend everything and jar them up! You can make 2 jars for this recipe. Simply double or triple it to make more.

3. Enjoy!

Spread on toast, make peanut sauce for spring rolls, or use it as a noodle sauce base.

Dietitian Notes

Peanut butter provides good amount of protein. 1 Tbsp has about 4g of protein. However, it is very high in fat since it is packed with Omega-3 and Omega-6s (higher on the 6 than the 3). Eating peanut butter sparingly is recommended.

Tips & Variations

You can literally make any nut butter using this recipe. Some nuts may be slightly drier or less oily than peanuts or almonds, you may have to add 1 Tbsp of olive oil or canola oil to help with the blending process.
