    To make crunchy peanut butter, add 1/3 cup of the roasted peanuts to a food processor. Pulse 6 to 8 times, or until the peanuts are chopped into small pieces. Transfer chopped peanuts to a bowl and reserve for later.

  • 4

    Add the roasted peanuts to a food processor. Process 1 minute then scrape sides of a bowl with a rubber spatula. Process another 2 to 3 minutes until the peanut butter is shiny and smooth.

  • 5

    Add your desired amount of salt and honey and process until combined. Check the consistency; if it seems too thick, add oil a teaspoon at a time, until desired consistency. For crunchy peanut butter,  stir in the reserved peanuts.

    To store, transfer the peanut butter to a food-safe container, cover, and refrigerator up to two months. If the peanut butter separates, use a spoon to stir it until it is well blended. For long term storage, freeze indefinitely. Enjoy!
