Ever make your own nut butter? Do you think I could make it from RAW nuts?

I bought a HUGE bag, and they are SOOOOOO GROSS! So, I thought maybe I could use them in a butter?

Any thoughts?

Here is a recipe I just recently ran across for making your own PB, hope you find it useful.


Home-made Peanut Butter – by Debbie Cusick

1 12-oz jar dry roast unsalted peanuts

2-3 tbsp. peanut oil

Optional:

Dash of salt, dash of Splenda.

Put peanuts in the food processor with the steel blade and let 'er rip. After a few seconds they should start to look mealy. Put in the salt and Splenda, if desired. Then pour in the oil and continue to process for 10-20 more seconds. That's it.
