Peanut Butter

 There are some healthy things which we need to add in our regular diet and peanut butter is one of them . This delicious spread is very rich in protiens and healthy fat . 

Rather than buying it from outside it can be prepared at home very easily and in minutes . I tried making this spread with whatever ingredients I had readily at home and it turned out even better than store bought variety . 

I made some variations like instead of adding sugar or glucose which is usually done in readymade variety I added honey to it . Also while grinding I kept the texture little grainy which actually tasted much better . 

Ingredients - 

1 cup - peanuts 

2 tbsp - groundnut oil 

2/3 tbsp - honey 

salt as per taste 

Method - 

In a kadhai dry roast the peanuts till they give out a nice aroma and become crisp . 

When still warm remove the skin of the peanuts . 

This step is completely optional .

If you want to keep the skil you can do so . 

I have tried both with skin and without skin . 

Now add the skinned peanuts in the mixer and start the mixer . 

Add salt and gradually go on adding oil and honey little at a time while grinding . 

You can keep the texture grainy of can grind till it becomes fine as per your choice . 

Store is a air tight glass jar . 

It stays well for 2 to 3 weeks even if kept outside . 

Just take care not to use water at all .
