Get the Recipe: Vitamix Peanut Butter
This Vitamix Peanut Butter is smooth, creamy, and so delicious! It is made with only one ingredient: peanuts. This homemade peanut butter is great for sandwiches, baked goods, and eating by the spoonful!
Ingredients
- 2 cups roasted salted peanuts
Equipment
- Vitamix blender
Instructions
- First, add peanuts to Vitamix blender.
- Secure lid. Blend until smooth and creamy. This takes about 1 to 2 minutes.
- Use tamper tool to help push peanut butter down towards the blade.
- If needed, turn Vitamix off and scrape down sides of blender. Then, continue blending until smooth and creamy.
- Finally, pour into jar with lid or airtight container.
Notes
- If using unsalted peanuts, add in 1/4 tsp sea salt before blending.
- Blend on medium speed (about speed 4 to 5 on an 8 speed blender).
- If using a food processor or lower speed blender, this process can take up to 10 minutes.
- With my Vitamix, it took around 90 seconds.
- This recipe makes about 1 cup of peanut butter. Each serving is about 2 tablespoons.
- Store in a glass jar with lid or airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 month.
- A little natural oil separation may occur. Stir before using.
- I use the Vitamix E310 which is a cheaper Vitamix option. It works great!
