Just roast the peanuts a bit, a little salt and throw them into a blender. If your going to use oil, may I suggest peanut oil? You can buy it at any grocery store and it won't change the taste of the natty PB. -------------- Lift. Eat. Rest. Gain. ~Brad~

kakaroto Posts: 893 Joined: 2002/05/09	2005/01/09, 07:35 PM HEY, what about SOY oil? when it comes to oils, i get kind of confuse trying to compare them and see wich is "the better" one...
xxrajxx Posts: 423 Joined: 2004/08/12	2005/01/10, 03:56 AM I made mine with a few drops of sunflower oil, didnt change the taste. try making small quantities with different oils, and see which one u like
neiltilley Posts: 325 Joined: 2003/03/09	2005/01/11, 08:14 AM in africa they grind up their peanuts and get lovely peanut butter with no oil at all... but hey! you aint no srious shopper if you cant find peanut oil in a health store! So if we say oil changes the flavour and you only want like a teaspoon at a time till you hit the consistency you are looking for. Then what flavour do you think might work or be healthiest? olive, almond, gear oil?
