I noticed that Peanut Butter from the store contains a lot of preservatives & unhealthy fats. Although it does contain the healthy benefits of peanut butter but the harmful chemicals eventually negate it.
Its Like +1-1=0. The nutrient's we eventually want to get out of peanut butter is Zero.
So I decided to make my own Peanut Butter at home. Today Was a trial run. I wanted to make a sample and see the end results.
And to my surprise it's even better than any of the store peanut butter.
Making at home, one can have the luxury of customizing their peanut butter to their liking.
Example-One can add Cocoa powder and make it a Chocolate Peanut Butter or Vanilla extract to give it that crisp flavor. Customizing options are endless.
The Recipe
1.Roast one cup peanuts and put it in Grinder
2.Add pinch of salt.
3.My customization tool- Honey(1 tbsp)
**4.Switch the Grinder to full power for 25 sec(Powder Consistency) Push the excess down. **
5.Another 25 sec(Little Thick Consistency)
6.Grind until you get paste like consistency.
Voila! Nutrient rich Homemade Peanut Butter is ready. It's that simple. It does not take more than 10 mins to prepare.
Before you could go to a store and buy and unhealthy one. You could work up one at home.
Optional- You can add 1 tsp of extra virgin coconut oil to pack it with more healthy fats.
Transfer the Peanut Butter from the grinding vessel to a air tight container.
And place it in a Fridge and use it on toasts, sandwiches and smoothies.
Thank You for reading.
Have a blessed day.
Cheers!
