Peanut Butter.... with Honey

Its Fall.
Time for apples.
Dipped in peanut butter.
And sandwiches.
For after-school snacks.
Made with peanut butter.
So why not home-made peanut butter?

No, thats not an attempt at a haiku. Its been a long day, and my thoughts are just that short. haha

Seriously though, we made peanut butter this afternoon and let me tell you:  this peanut butter is soo good and soo easy to make!  And yes, it has honey!!  Woo-hoo!!

So here it is:

Shell about two cups of peanuts (after shells of coarse) and put in your food processor.  Process them up nice and fine.

Add about 1/2 tsp kosher salt along with 1 tsp honey (Chick-a-Bee Farm honey of coarse) and grind again.


Add about 1 Tbs peanut oil (or EVOO, coconut oil, or whatever you like) and grind until smooth.  Stop to scrape the edges every little bit.

Taste and adjust to your own liking.  We also added a tiny bit of vanilla extract to ours.


And there ya go!!!  Mmmmmm!!!
