Recipe

Place the roasted peanuts into a container with a lid and shake to remove the outer shells in the first round.
Sieve the shelled peanuts to remove remaining husks, then gently rub any remaining bits off by hand to fully clean them.
Add the cleaned 150g of peanuts into the blender all at once.
Add a pinch of salt, close the blender lid, and begin blending finely.
When the mixture starts clumping, separate the blender container, give it a light shake, and continue blending.
Repeat this process of pausing and shaking about three times until the peanuts are thoroughly blended into a smooth, creamy consistency.

Shake the roasted peanuts in a lidded container to easily remove the shells.
Add the peanuts and a pinch of salt to the blender and turn it on.
Occasionally stop and shake the container while blending until a creamy texture forms.

Cooking tips

Shaking the peanuts in a lidded container saves significant time compared to removing each shell by hand.
The key to achieving a smooth, spreadable texture like store-bought versions is to blend thoroughly and gradually over time.
Free from additives, this makes it ideal for use as a diet-friendly salad dressing or a light toast spread.

Recommended for

Those concerned about additives in store-bought peanut butter and seeking a healthier homemade alternative.
People who want to quickly and easily make a spread using leftover roasted peanuts at home.
