Family Go Nuts! October 23, 2013

Only one ingredient. Unsalted dry roasted peanuts.
Only one ingredient. Unsalted dry roasted peanuts. Go Nuts!

When my husband and I were newlyweds, we discovered that we were both fans of Peter Pan Crunchy Peanut Butter. Sure, we liked Jif too. But then about a decade ago we made the switch to natural peanut butter to avoid hydrogenated oil. We switched to Smuckers All Natural and would store the jar upside down so the oil on top would mix in. We enjoyed them all – TJ’s, Lexington Co-Op’s, Peanut Butter and Co- you name it! Well, we are onto something better and I have to give Evan credit for this one. He pulled out the blender and said “I’m making my own.”  Maybe it was the rising cost of peanut butter, maybe it was the added oil or sugar, maybe he was watching an old episode of ‘Father Knows Best’ or maybe it was the extra peanuts in the cupboard; whatever the reason we have not looked back since. Simple. Delicious. Only one ingredient. Unsalted, dry roasted peanuts. Chopped in a ninja blender. It’s that easy. Sure, you can add honey and oil (peanut oil) or molasses or salt or sugar. But why? Go Nuts!!
