Homemade Peanut Butter

Hello Friends,

Yes! You're correct in your suspicion, peanut butter is one of my favorite foods. I'd eat it at every meal if I would only allow myself such indulgence. My favorite ice creams usually contain peanut butter as do my favorite cookies (peanut butter oatmeal). I add it to recipes that don't usually call for it because I think it adds that little something special. You know, the "is that peanut butter?", why "YES!" - yes it is!!!

If I would have had more than one ripe banana this evening, I was going to have a go at a Peanut Butter Banana Cream Pie - but that was just not in the cards tonight. But maybe you'll make one - and you'll share with me. You're sweet. Thank you for sharing.

Peanut Butter. Eat it. Love it. Make it. NOW!

Cheers,

Amanda

Homemade Peanut Butter

2 cups, shelled roasted "unsalted" peanuts

1 tsp. peanut oil (you many use more, but i like thick peanut butter)
1/2 tsp salt

3-4 Tbls. honey

1/4 tsp. cinnamon

1/8 tsp. nutmeg

Place peanuts, oil and salt in a food processor and blend until a desired consistency is reached. Add the honey, cinnamon and nutmeg. Pulse to combine. Store peanut butter in an air tight container. I keep mine in the refrigerator.
