Simple, easy, sweet & delicious homemade peanut butter with just two ingredients! You’re just 5 minutes away from sweet, creamy and drippy peanut butter that is absolutely unforgettable.
Can I tell you something embarrassing? This morning I was leaving the pool after my swim, and I unlocked my car and I literally sat at this car wondering why it wouldn’t unlock for a good minute. Then I looked around and was like “Waiiiiiit, I didn’t park over here….”
This happens way more often than I’d like to admit. I usually am a “beat of my own drum” type, and I don’t like to have the same things as everyone else, so I’m not used to the fact that everyone and their mother has the same car as me. I love my cute little Elantra, but I’m not quite used seeing doubles everywhere I go.
So that was my morning. I swam, I tried to steal a car, I came home and took pictures of cookies, and now here I am. Avoiding packing. Talking to you. Speaking of packing, I still haven’t officially unpacked from Seattle, so I can probably just keep that suitcase, right???
Friday morning I’m heading to Blend!!! I’ve been dying to go after reading the recaps for the last two years, and I cannot wait to be reunited with this girl and also see/meet some of my favorites. Also, I’m pretty quick to jump into anything that gets me the heck out of Phoenix right now. Did I mention it’s already 110? Ew.
And clearly when it’s 110, I cannot be bothered to turn on the oven or my stove, so I make peanut butter. But not just any peanut butter. Like, the best peanut butter of my life kind of peanut butter. I was kind of obsessed with honey roasted peanut butter as it is, but add the seeds of an entire vanilla bean? Ummm, YES PLEASE. Smooth, creamy, drippy, sweet and totally dreamy; you will make this peanut butter again and again!

Ingredients
- 16 oz honey roasted peanuts (or feel free to swap honey roasted almonds, macadamia nuts, etc.)
- seeds from 1 vanilla bean
- pinch sea salt, optional
Instructions
- Place peanuts and seeds from vanilla bean in your food processor. Blend until a smooth and creamy butter forms, about 5 minutes, stopping and scraping the sides of the food processor as necessary. Taste and add salt if necessary. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for 2-3 weeks.
Just made almond butter for the first time in my food processor – sooooooooo good with vanilla bean!
speaking of pools.. i could literally dive headfirst into that jar and not coe out til i lick it clean!!
your bringing this to blend right??? 😉
I bet this tastes amazing! I haven’t made me own nut butter yet, though I do like buying it from health food stores where you grind up your own nuts, so it’s freshly made. I will need to get a food processor soon so I can start making my own and incorporating more ingredients into it!
This peanut butter looks amazing!!
I can’t believe that happened to you with the car, that’s hilarious! I see my car every once in awhile but it’s getting older (and no longer made) so it doesn’t happen as often. Have fun at Blend!
