Carol's Homemade Peanut Butter Base

 Natural Peanut Butter- have you looked at the ingredients? Have you looked at the price tags? To me, "natural" peanut butter would "naturally" be made of only peanuts, but maybe it is just me? For those who are watching the added sugar grams, or extra sodium, this is a great recipe to be able to enjoy peanut butter! First start with a jar of unsalted, dry roasted peanuts. This can be any brand, sometimes I even use generic!
Next, pour the entire jar into your handy dandy food processor and turn the setting on chop for about 2 minutes. Take off the lid, scrape the sides, and push the contents back down again. Turn the processor back on chop setting for another 1-2 minutes or until creamy.
This is the finished product! It is delicious and it tastes like...PEANUTS! How easy does it get right? I store mine in a washed glass jar and keep it in the fridge. Get creative with making flavored peanut butter if that floats your boat! I have added 2T of pumpkin spice and it was out of sight! You could also use cinnamon, or unsweetened baking cocoa, or if you prefer a sweeter version try adding 1T of of pure honey or agave!

Best in health,
