Homemade Keto Peanut Butter
Making your own homemade peanut butter is so easy! You control the ingredients and the texture. Perfect for a keto or low carb lifestyle!
Ingredients
- 6 cups roasted peanuts (salted or unsalted)
- 1 to 2 tbsp coconut oil or MCT oil (or more, to the desired consistency), optional
- 1 to 2 tbsp Besti Monk fruit and Allulose Sweetener
- pink salt optional (to taste)
Instructions
- Using a good food processor, or a high-powered blender, process the peanuts to a sandy consistency.
- Add 1 tablespoon of the oil. *If using a food processor please see the notes below.
- Continue to process/blend, (be patient it will take some time) until the peanut butter reaches the desired consistency.
- Add sweetener, to taste.
- Drizzle in the other tablespoon of oi (or water) to make it slightly thinner (if wanted) and to add fat.
- Place peanut butter into pint jars or airtight containers.
- Store the peanut butter at room temperature where it will keep for at least 2 weeks, or store it in the refrigerator, where it keeps for up to 3 months.
Notes
If using a food processor vs a high-speed blender (like I do), the food processor will need to run for around 10 minutes to achieve a creamy peanut butter texture.
