Creamy peanut butter.
Peanut butter can be made utilizing only the oils within the peanuts and no additional oil. Spanish peanuts are the best to use when making peanut butter because they have a higher oil content than other peanuts. Avoid the roasting process when not using oil to make peanut butter, because roasting will cause a lot of the natural oils to burn away. The best way to make peanut butter without oil is to grind the peanuts. Add this to my Recipe Box.
Instructions
1. Rinse the peanuts lightly in cool water. Do not use hot water; it will pull some of the natural oils out of the peanuts. The purpose of the rinse is simply to remove any particles from the peanuts.
2. Place the Spanish peanuts into a food processor. Include the salt and honey if you wish to have those flavors in your peanut butter.
3. Grind the mixture into a paste.
4. Shut off the food processor and occasionally scrape off any paste that sticks to the walls of the food processor.
5. Continue grinding until you reach the desired consistency.
6. Remove the peanut butter from the food processor and store in a plastic container.
