- Always roast raw shelled peanut for four to five minutes and remove the skin by rubbing with both palms.
- Roast until it changes to light brown colour. The more you roast, the nut turns black and, you may not achieve the perfect Peanut Butter colour.
- When pulsing peanut, do not run the food processor continuously as the processor turns hot and, nut starts to release oil before it is smooth.
- When the peanut is smooth and creamy, add honey and pulse once or twice only. The peanut mixture turns into clumps. Do not worry! Now add a teaspoon of oil and pulse it once. Adding 1 tablespoon of oil helps peanut butter from seizing up and becoming thick. It helps to achieve smooth creamy spreadable Homemade Peanut butter.
