Homemade Peanut and Almond Butter

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup of roasted almonds
• 1/2 cup of peanuts
• 1 teaspoon of sea salt
• 2 tablespoons of extra virgin pine nut oil

Process

Combine almonds, peanuts, and salt in a food processor, blender, meat grinder or nut butter machine and process until finely ground. Add the oil and continue processing until the butter reaches your desired degree of smoothness, adding more oil if necessary. For chunky butter, stir in 1/4 cup of chopped almonds or whole pine nuts. Store in a refrigerator, tightly covered. Variations: substitute pine nuts, Brazil nuts, cashews, hazelnuts or macadamia nuts for the almonds. Or combine two or more of these nuts in any proportion.
