Easy Honey Peanut Butter

I am obsessed with peanut butter. I could eat it for every meal.


Some weeks I actually do eat it for every meal! I love those weeks!!


Since I am trying to save a little money and always buy organic or all-natural peanut butter, I have decided to start making my own! And it's SO EASY! All you need is some peanuts, salt, and a food processor.


I added honey to mine because I usually end up adding honey to my peanut butter sandwich anyway and this cuts out a step...always trying to save time! I also thought it would be a tasty addition if I wanted to use the peanut butter in cookies or brownies...I'm getting so excited!


The Recipe (Easiest one yet)


1 can of peanuts (you can get roasted, salted, plain...doesn't matter)


pinch of salt


Honey (optional)




How To:


Dump the peanuts into the food processor and mix together until smooth. Add a pinch of salt if needed.






Next, you can add honey to the processor, or mix it together in a bowl. I chose the latter.


Store this for up to a week outside of the refrigerator. In the fridge, it lasts longer. You will need to stir it occasionally...mine won't last that long :)




The results: 


After adding the honey and the salt, the taste and texture were perfect! I can put this on toast or mix it to make cookies! The possibilities are endless!!
