PEANUT BUTTER
preparation: 2 minutes • processing: 1 minute • makes: 420g
440g unsalted,
roasted peanuts
Chef’s Tip: for a
lower-sodium nut butter,
be sure to start with
unsalted nuts.
NOTE: over–processing will cause serious overheating to
your machine and can cause damage to your container.
Do not process for more than 1 minute after the mixture
starts circulating.
1. Put all the ingredients into the Vitamix container and
secure the lid.
2. Select Variable 1.
3. Turn the machine on and slowly increase the speed to
Variable 10, then to High, using the tamper to press
the ingredients into the blades.
4. In 1 minute you will hear a high–pitched chugging
sound. Once the butter begins to flow freely through
the blades, the motor sound will change and become
low and labouring. Stop the machine.
5. Store in an airtight container. It can also be frozen for
longer storage.
