Ingredients :

• 230g raw unsalted peanuts (can also buy pre-roasted peanuts)


• ¼ teaspoon Himalayan sea salt


• Ground cinnamon


• Sweetener (monk fruit, maple syrup or honey)

Serves : 16

Cooks In : 10 min

Difficulty : Easy

Preparation Method :

Roast peanuts (optional):
1. Preheat oven to 325 F and spread a single layer of nuts on a large rimmed baking sheet.
2. Toast for 8-10 minutes, mixing halfway.
3. Remove from oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes, until no longer hot (warm is okay).

Nut butter:
1. Add the (roasted or unroasted) nuts to a food processor. Process on high speed until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides of the bowl frequently.
2. You’ll notice that the nuts will go through various stages:
CRUMBY TEXTURE: First, you’ll notice that the nuts will look like crumbs.
CLUMPING INTO A BALL: then they’ll start clumping up into a ball.
SANDY / GRITTY PASTE: Keep processing and the clump will break down and start to turn into a gritty paste.
CREAMY PEANUT BUTTER: Finally, the nut butter will get smooth and spreadable and you’ll end up with creamy peanut butter.
3. Once the mixture is creamy, you can add optional salt, sweetener or add-ins of your choice.
4. Allow to cool down slightly before transferring to a glass jar.
