Whole Earth organic peanut butter

Good job mid gen. What was the bag weight and cost of the unroasted peanuts? Interested how many equivalent shop bought jars of peanut butter that lot would give you and how long did you roast them for? What model is your Magimix?
That was 500g of unsalted, blanched peanuts. I can't remember exactly where I bought these ones from as I am still shopping around to find a decent price. Think it was just a 1kg bag from the rainforest. A jar lasts longer than shop bought as the flavour is a lot richer.
Roast em at 140-ish for about 10 minutes, you can vary the roast a lot for different flavours. Leave them to cool for 10-15 minutes before blending. I add 1/2 teaspoon of table salt and a dribble of honey for a bit of sweetness.
Blender is the Magimix Le Blender. Really good, simple, well-made blender, with easily available parts, apart from it's ability to make nut butters.
Different batches of nuts can vary a lot, this one was especially oily, which makes for a quite runny butter, sometimes they come out thicker. Tbh I should probably take more notes about roasting and blending time instead of just winging it every time
