Skin-On Peanut Butter Recipe
Report
This healthy skin-on peanut butter is deliciously creamy and nutty, and full of fibre and antioxidants that you won’t find in any storebought peanut butter.

Ingredients
- 4 cups skin-on peanuts
- 1 tsp fine salt or 1/2 tbsp kosher salt (*optional)
- 2 tbsp brown sugar (*optional)
Instructions
- If using raw peanuts, first roast them: in the air fryer at 160 °C (320 °F) for 18 minutes, or oven at 175 °C (350 °F) for 20 minutes, tossing twice. (See Note 2.)
- Add all the roasted and cooled peanuts to a Vitamix blender. Blend on high speed for 2 minutes, using the tamper to continuously push down the peanuts until they have turned into a smooth peanut butter.
Notes
- Vitamix blenders are best-suited for making nut butters because 1) they have the motor power needed to blend whole nuts into a smooth paste 2) they come with a tamper which allows you to push the ingredients down into the blades as you blend. I've also tried making peanut butter in a Blendtec, which is just as powerful but doesn't come with a tamper. It was cumbersome because I had to stop the blender and scrape the peanuts into the bottom of the jar several times to get them fully blended. However, Blendtec sells a smaller jar called the Twister Jar, which is specifically designed for thick blends like peanut butter. This one has worked pretty well in my experience, but you will need to blend in batches because of the smaller size.
- The roasting times are for 600g of peanuts in a single batch (a single air fryer basket or a single quarter-sheet baking pan). If you are roasting less peanuts, ie. each peanut is more spread out, then the roasting time will reduce drastically. Don’t burn your nuts!
