So here's how to make your very own PEANUT BUTTER for those nut butter NUTS like me. It's quite simple and (not-so) quick process.
All you need are :
-Peanuts (as much as you want)
- Food processor (I used Magic Bullet brand)
- Patience. Lots of it.
Steps :
1) Take a handful of peanuts and put it in the food processor.
2) Blend the peanuts. After blending it for a few minutes, you'll see that the peanuts will become a flakey/grainy/powdery consistency. Continue blending it and after a few minutes the peanuts will form into clumps, that means the natural oil in the nuts are starting to release. After awhile you will see that the nuts are starting to stick by the wall of the processor, don't worry, just keep scooping the nuts in the middle every minute or to and continue to blend. Keep blending it until it reaches your preferable consistency.
3) Repeat step 1-2 until you've come to a jar of your own clean eats PEANUT BUTTER!
So here it is, TA-DAAA. Your very own homemade peanut butter, with no extra nonsensical ingredient that you cannot pronounce! So it's good for those who are starting to eat clean.
Note that this jar of peanut butter will be tasteless as it hasn't been added any salt or sugar, unless you've gotten the salted peanuts. If you want to add seasoning to it, then add it while you are blending it, but if you prefer tasteless, then this is good for you.
REMEMBER to stop and let your food processor rest after every 5-10 minutes to avoid the processor being burnt. The whole process take about 20-30 minutes or longer, depending how dry your peanuts are. The drier it is, the faster the oil of the nuts will be released. Here's when your 3rd ingredient PATIENCE is needed.
Hope you'll try it out and like what you get.
