Instructions
FourSide or WildSide+ Jar
- Add peanuts and salt to FourSide or WildSide+ jar and secure lid. Blend on Low speed for 15 seconds, then increase speed to High and blend until 50 seconds.
- Using a spatula or Spoonula, move peanuts towards center of jar, add oil and secure lid. Blend on medium to medium-low speed for 50 seconds, then blend on medium to medium-high speed for 50 seconds.
Note: You can also make peanut butter without the added oil. Instead of adding the oil after the second cycle, simply blend the peanut butter for an additional 50 seconds on Low speed. Then, continue blending for two additional cycles as directed above.
Twister Jar
- Reduce ingredients by ½.
- Add peanuts and salt to Twister Jar. Blend on a medium to medium-high speed for 50 seconds or until desired texture is reached. Turn lid counterclockwise while blending.
I made peanut butter in my Twister Jar with only 2 cups of salt roasted peanuts; no added salt, and no added oil. By running 2 cycles on medium, it turned out perfect, however, it’s not as firm as store-bought peanut butter, so I’m wondering if it’s going to be OK to use in my Buckeyes candy recipe that our family makes every Christmas.
The texture of fresh made nut butter does not get thicker as it sits. You can chill the nut butter in the fridge for a stiffer consistency, and prior to adding to a recipe, as you mentioned. Purchased peanut butter has oils that are added to make it a thicker texture. Hope this helps!
Did it change after it cooled down?
We keep it in the refrigerator, but noticed that it wasn’t as thick as
store-bought, so will try adding peanut oil only, to see if that makes a
similar consistency to use for candy making. For daily use, I still
like being able to only blend salted roasted nuts. Thank you.
i have a tom dickson xtream blender what do i need to do peanuts in it?
