Ingredients

  • 2 cups peanuts
  • 2 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • a pinch salt

Instructions

  • Take 2 cups raw peanuts. Roast in low medium flame.
  • Roast until golden brown and crisp. Switch off.
  • Remove the skin - Just rub with your fingers / palms and blow off the skin.
  • Peanuts are ready now.
  • To a dry mixer jar add the roasted peanuts.
  • Grind it for few seconds.
  • First it will become brittle.
  • Scrape the sides and the bottom.
  • Grind it again it will start to come together and will be sticky.
  • Grind it for few more seconds and it will become clumpy.
  • Grind it again ti will become more like a paste.
  • Now add 2 tablespoon sugar, 1 tablespoon oil and a pinch of salt. Grind it again.
  • Now this is the crunchy peanut butter. You can store it like this if you like the crunchy texture.

  • See how creamy and flowing the consistency it is.
  • Now we can stop grinding.

Notes

    • The texture is purely your choice, if you want it crunchy then stop with step 23. I wanted smooth peanut butter so grind it accordingly.
    • The color of the peanut butter is purely based on how much you roast the peanuts. Roasting until golden brown is recommended for a flavorful nutty peanut butter also it gives a more flowing consistency and stays so even after few weeks.
    • Add peanut oil or cooking oil.
    • I have tried with jaggery and honey too. If you are using jaggery as such then use cleaned jaggery.
    • Keep refrigerated to increase shelf life. It will become slightly thick after a week of refrigerating it but still it will be spreadable.
    • You can even use peanuts with skin but that will give a slightly bitter taste.
    • I used my mixer jar, you can use your food processor too.
    • If you want chunky peanut butter then reserve a handful of peanuts and add at the final stage, give a quick pulse so that the peanut pieces come here and there while eating.
    • Flavor Variations - You can add cinnamon or cocoa powder or vanilla essence. You can experiment with different versions.
