Method
- Preheat the oven to 160°C (320°F). Spread the raw peanuts on a baking tray.
- Roast for 15–18 minutes, until the peanuts are lightly golden. Watch them closely so they don’t turn brown.
- Let the peanuts cool until they’re still slightly warm. This helps them blend smoothly without overheating the food processor.
- Transfer the peanuts to a food processor. Blend, stopping occasionally to stir and scrape down the sides. The peanuts will first become finely ground, then form a thick paste.
- Add the sea salt and honey. Continue blending until the peanuts release their natural oil and the mixture becomes smooth and spreadable.
- If the mixture stays too thick, make sure the peanuts are still warm. You can also blend in a little coconut oil or peanut oil, if needed.
- Transfer the peanut butter to a jar. Let it cool before serving; it will thicken as it cools.
