Home made peanut butter. [View all]

Just made some for the first time in the blender. Easy, cheap and healthy. After reading the label on my store bought and seeing how much "natural" ones cost at the market, thought I'd give it a try on a rainy day. Did a search on the net for "blender peanut butter". Took about 15 minutes and most of that was cleaning out the blender. Taste great. Cost me about 2 bucks to make a pound.
