Homemade peanut butter

This is my second time making peanut butter, as it is so easy, and it tastes delicious.
It tastes much better than what I buy in the store, as at least I know what is in them. The food products in the stores have so many chemicals in them, that I can't pronounce most of them. If I can't pronounce them, I certainly don't want yo put them in my body.
There are many ways to use peanut butter, and I mostly put it on bread, as well as celery sticks too.
I enjoy making my own food products, and I will continue to, as long as I can.

I don't usually buy anything that has more than 5 ingredients listed! I don't like cooking but I cook a lot because, like you, I want to avoid stuff that is put in our food.

I hear you on that one. There are lots of ingredients in the foods we buy, and most of the time, I can't pronoounce half of them let alone know what kind of chemicals they used. They are hamful, so I am starting to make my own, as I know what I have put in it and I can pronounce them as well.

It is so risky then to buy ready-made food or drink. Most food is canned and that may have negative side effect.

@yanzalong You are so right. At least when I make anything at home, I know exactly, what is in it. I won't put anything in it, that I know I shouldn't/

I'm not good at making home products as I've never learned. That's great you made your own peanut butter and i'm sure it taste just the same or better. I don't eat peanut butter very often but sometimes I enjoy a peanut butter and fluff sandwich.

@rosekiss We always get peter pan peanut butter but I don't eat it every day. I enjoy peanut butter here and there but not as much as i did when I was a kid.

I have always liked peanut butter, from a child on up. I would eat a lot of peter pan then, but that is no good, as what they put in it, shoouldn't be put in our bodies. I also ate a lot of jif, and there again, that shouldn't be eaten either. I finally got Skppy, and it is much better than the others. Now that I am making my own, I won't be buying peanjut butter ever again.

@rosekiss .....A peanut butter and jelly sandwich come into my mind. Home made always tastes better I think.

It realaly is, as I like putting it on celery sticks a well as putting it on my toast and making peanut butter sandwiches too. It so so delcious, and now that I know how to make my own, I am going to do that from now on, It will save buying it at the store. Mine tastes much better anyway.

@petatonicsca Peanuts is an American thing. Many Europeans are allergic to peanuts. I always check the labels before buying products, I can be very sick if I eat even a small amount of peanuts.

We are a nut-free school because several of our students are allergic to peanuts.

If you have a good food processor or blender, then you can make it yourself. I bought my peanuts in bulk so they will last longer and what I boutght will make lots of peanut butter. That is okay though, a it is really good and good for me, as I know what is it in it.

No id didn't, as I bought them roasted and lightly salted. It does taste good either way though, as it ony tkes a few ingredients to have it made. I ave a tendency to put my finger in the jar and eat it that way. 
It is just so good, that I can't stop eating it. At least it won't ham me, so I am not to concerned, although, moderation is really better.

I eat it alot so I don't have to worry about it going bad, and actually, it doesn't go rancid like other things will. I had my other peanut butter for over two weeks, and it was still good. I just finished it up yesterday, and made me some more. It is easy to make that a child can do it. Just get a good food processor or blender and start making. I happen to have both as I use both for different things. They certainly do come in handy as I use them everyday.

@yanzalong You are very welcome. I would be interested to find out how it turns out. Once you start making your own products, you won't ever pay for them again. You will ind that they taste much better than what you buy in the store anywaqy.

It takes two cups of peanutus and I use the roasted, salted ones, and I buy them in bulk.1/2 teaqspoon of sea salt, 1-2 tablespoons peanut oil or any other oil. I used cocout oil when I didn't have the peanut oil, and 1-2 tablespoons of honey. Blend salt and peanuts until a fine powder, and then add the oil and the noney. Blend until creamy or desired consistency. It is very easy to make and tkes no time at all.

It really does. I put a little raw honey in mine and that really makes it taste good. I just can't stop eating it. I have always liked peanut butter, even as a child. At least making it myself, I know what is in it, and I can pronounce the ingreduients as well.

It really is. I have a social media friend, that makes her own toothpaste, deoderant, soaps and esssential oils. I think that is great, a I want to learn to do that too. I have been having lots of fun making my own foods, as they are so good and healthy for me too. Everything I make doesn't take many ingredients, and are easy to make, that anyone can make them if they have a good food procesor or blender to make them.

That is the best thing to be. I should have started my plant based diet, a long time ago. It is the best decision I have ever made, and I will continue on my journey as long as I can.

That is really cool you make your own peanut butter. What ingredients do you use? I also love peanut butter with celery and also with carrots.
