Servings 350 grams of peanut butter

Take 2 cups of raw peanuts.
Heat a pan and add raw peanuts.
Dry roast the peanuts on low heat until the peanuts turn crunchy and aromatic.
Once done, turn off the heat.
Take the pan off the heat andallow the peanuts to cool completely.
Once cooled, transfer the peanuts to a blender jar. I have used the small jar for 2 cups of peanuts. Blend for few seconds.
Initially the peanuts will turn into a coarse powder. You will need to stop the blender after few seconds to give it a chance to cool down and also to scrape the sides of the jar.
Blend again for few seconds.
Add a pinch of salt and blend again for few seconds until you get creamy peanut butter.
Store the peanut butter in an air-tight glass container. It can be stored at room temperature upto 3 months.

I have not peeled the peanuts thus retaining the fibre content and making it wholesome.
