- 3-4 Cups of Peanuts (honey roasted, mixed, dry roasted or even almonds will work!)
- 3-4 Tbs Honey (Beeyond the Hive of course)
Happy March! Anyone else feel relieved that we are so much closer to nicer weather, playing outside, bbqs and baseball? I certainly am. Usually after the holidays I can steer clear of the winter blues but then by February it hits me like a ton of bricks. Seasonal depression and pure insanity! Manmeat (aka my husband) is gone all winter long for pollination season which means I am playing single mom to the 3 stooges! And we all know that cooped up boys means pent up energy which turns into wrestle mania at my house! I think I have to get my hair colored twice as much just to combat all the extra grays I accumulate from these boys! So I am pushing the boys outside more and more and loving the extra bit of sunshine that’s for sure!
Because of some much needed sunshine I was able to find some motivation and get my booty in gear! I originally learned how to make homemade peanut butter from a friend I’ve known since high school. She is a fitness coach and a great motivator so thank you Tiff! You can check out her website here. She also has a few more recipes I’m dying to try!
This recipe is simple, quick and perfect for all 24,489 of sandwiches I make for school lunches every year! You can double the recipe to yield more if you go through peanut butter like we do in our household! It’s always a staple in my cupboards. I haven’t tried it with almonds or cashews yet but that’s next up on my list. Give it a go and let me know what you think!
Two ingredients! Quick, easy and irresistible!
- 3-4 Cups Peanuts dry roast, honey roast, mixed or even almonds
- 3-4 Tbsp Honey (Beeyond the Hive is best:)
-
Add your peanuts to your food processor. Turn it on and let it go! I let mine run for several minutes. The heat from the blade will pull out all the oils and help blend the peanuts into a creamy mixture!
-
Next, add your honey with the food processor still running.
-
Keep it running until it's the desired consistency. Then you're all done!
-
Store in an air tight container but make sure you try several spoonfuls. That's a requirement!
