The other day, I got an email from one of my professors warning the class not to eat anything with peanuts and bananas, because one student in that class was allergic to both of those items.
Allergic to bananas and peanuts!! I could not imagine! I mean, I occasionally make peanut butter banana bread with peanut butter glaze (can you get enough peanut butter?) and I make peanut butter and banana smoothies on a regular basis.
This made me so sad. And a little guilty. Mainly because I don’t have many allergies. Like, at all. Except for mosquitoes, but who’s going to bring that to class?
So as a late Thanksgiving “what I am thankful for” spiel (since I somehow missed doing that around Thanksgiving), I am thankful that I don’t have any food allergies…that I know of.
So I am making the most of my peanut eating capabilities. I am making homemade peanut butter.
I can’t believe I have never done this before. It’s almost embarrassing how easy this is. This was so good, I may never buy peanut butter in a grocery store ever again!
Homemade Peanut Butter
Ingredients
- 3 cups roasted and salted peanuts
Instructions
- Place the peanuts in a food processor and pulse until a creamy mixture forms. This may take a while, depending on your food processor.

For having alone I prefer home made peanut butter 🙂 or almond butter
Looks delicious. I love making homemade PB, love to customize it. I can't even imagine being allergic, that is really sad that a professor said no one should eat PB and come to class. Must be really serious. 🙁
I am SO GLAD I'm not allergic to peanuts. I could eat peanut butter at every meal. Haha. I love this homemade recipe. Thank you for sharing it!
Hi Cathleen , I love homemade peanut butter , I also make homemade Pecan butter and it's . I never heard that someone else eating peanut butter could effect anyone else , thanks for sharing 🙂
Isn't it wonderful how easy it is to make your own peanut butter?! Your's looks delicious and very smooth. It's so sad when someone has a peanut allergy. I think of all they are missing 🙁
i am DEFINTIELY thankful that I'm not allergic to peanut butter!! I can't live without the stuff. Though I am allergic to kiwis, avocadoes, and pineapple. Sigh.
i forget how serious peanut butter allergies (or any food allergies) can be being that i am not allergic to anything at all. definitely thankful for how lucky i am in this regard! we just got a food processor. definitely time for me to start making my own nut butters!
Hey there, I´ve never made home made peanut butter before but should.. and it´s fits perfectly with my post this week i.e. peanut butter white choc fudge! Xx
Amazing how easy homemade peanut butter is, and tastes so different from store bought, because this has only peanuts
Why buy from store when you can make it at home so easily and without any preservatives? Delicious!
Allergic to banana and pb…So sorry for the kid!
Your homemade peanut butter looks great!
I've never even thought to make my own peanut butter. I'm one of those lucky ones too… no food allergies … knocking on wood.
La mezcla es un maridaje perfecto me encanta luce muy bonito,abrazos.
I love homemade peanut butter. And it's so easy to make so that makes it even better!
Isn’t it wonderful just how easy it is to make. I prefer almond butter which I make the same way. Nothing beats homemade, for sure!
I still need to try almond butter!
You’ve convinced me I can make my own healthy peanut butter at home! I’ve always been nervous it won’t turn out, but your directions are super simple! Thanks!
It’s really no fail! Let me know if you give it a go 🙂
So simple and so delicious! I get so annoyed at all the unnecessary added ingredients in most store-bought PBs, I need to just make my own more often!
Right?? Me too! Thanks Gina 🙂
Haha, love your funny cute writing style! Yes, peanuts and peanut butter, such comfort food. Thanks for this easy reliable recipe!
My favourite comfort food 🙂

Gotta love a good creamy peanut butter 😉
This homemade peanut butter was so easy and delicious! I could tell the difference immediately at the freshness of this versus storebought!
Ahh yes!! So good 🙂
We go through so much peanut butter, this would be perfect!
