Ingredients

  • 2 cups peanuts
  • 2 tablespoon powdered jaggery or honey
  • 2 tablespoon cooking oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Take peanuts in a pan, roast until browned and the skin starts to easily peel off. Cool down and then remove the skin.
  • You can take the peanuts in your palm, rub it then blow away the skin.
  • Now remove the center white part and discard it.
  • Now take the peanuts in a blender, powder it.
  • Keep grinding it when it starts to come together, add powdered jaggery and salt.
  • Then grind again, you can see the oil releasing and it will become sticky. At this stage add half of the oil you have.
  • Keep grinding, then add remaining oil and grind it again.
  • Keep grinding it, you can see the texture change by now it should have got look like flowing paste. Transfer to airtight container and store.
  • Store Peanut Butter in fridge after 2 days.

Notes

  • The texture is purely your choice, if you want it crunchy then grind less. I wanted smooth peanut butter so grinded accordingly.
  • Add odourless cooking oil.
  • I have tried with jaggery syrup and honey too.
  • If you are using jaggery as such then use cleaned jaggery.
  • You can even use peanuts with skin but that will give a slightly bitter taste.
  • I used my mixer jar, you can use your food processor too.
  • If you want chunk peanut butter then reserve a handful of peanuts and add at the final stage, give a quick pulse so that the peanut pieces come here and there while eating.
