To make peanut butter at home just grind it with salt and oil. My younger boy likes it a lot. I, knowing high protein content of peanut butter love to give it to him on paratha, toast, roti.
My first batch of Peanut Butter came as I had a pack of fried salted peanuts that no one wanted to eat. I just had to grind them and add sugar and it was ready. And the taste was really good. Then second also came like that too.

How to store Homemade Peanut Butter?
- Store homemade nut butters in clean jar with tightly covered lid as exposure to oxygen can make it rancid. Always use clean spoon for serving.
- Keep all nut butters in fridge, and they are good for more than a month. If you like soft butter, you can store on counter top too for more than a week. If you want to store for longer, you can keep in freezer up-to 3 months.
- You can even make a large batch and store in freezer. Just take out a small portion and store in separate jar in fridge.
- If oil separates give your butter a whisk.
- Discard peanut butter if solid part liquefy or smell or taste becomes sour.

WOW….. Thank you so much for sharing such great tip….!
patrick @alldayieat.com says
how long will this keep ?
Mariam Sodawater says
On counter, more than 1 week.
In refrigrator, it keeps for more than a month. A little care which is with anything without preservative is use clean spoon every time for serving. Keep the lid tightly closed as exposure to oxygen can make any nut butter rancid.
In freezer, it stays good for 3 months.
So if I can’t use whole batch within a month, I take out a small portion in small quantity in a separate clean jar to store in fridge and freeze the rest.
If oil separates, give it a whisk.
Hope this helps.
