Peanut Butter Success!

As I mentioned in my last post, today Zara and I planned to make peanut butter from scratch using a recipe that she can follow.
What you'll need;

whole unshelled peanuts
Vegetable oil
Honey
Mortar and pestle
Small mixer like a cuisinart

I shelled the peanuts into the mortar and pestle and my daughter crushed them. We then dumped them into the cuisinart, added 2 tabl of oil and 2 tabl of honey. Blend and serve. It is delicious, and might be this year's Christmas presents. She lived being involved with each step of the process and we talked about how peanuts grow.
