Homemade Peanut Butter: Fresh, Creamy, and Simple to Make

Introduction
Homemade peanut butter is a deliciously fresh and creamy alternative to store-bought jars. Made with just peanuts and a pinch of salt (plus optional sweeteners or oils), it’s perfect for spreading on crusty bread, dipping with fruit, or enjoying straight from the spoon. If you’re out of peanuts, almond butter is an easy and tasty substitute that you can make just as simply.

Ingredients:
2 cups raw or roasted peanuts (unsalted)

1/4 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)

1–2 tablespoons peanut oil or neutral oil (optional, for creamier texture)

1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
