Ingredients Method Notes

食材 Ingredients
  

  • 400 g Peanuts (for 1)
  • Pinch of salt
Optional:
  • 1 tsp Sugar or adjust sweetness to your preference
  • Chia seeds as needed
  • Flax seeds as needed
  • 1 tbsp Chocolate chips or as needed
  • 1 tsp Cocoa powder or as needed

步骤 Method
 

  1. Place the peanuts in a preheated oven at 145–150°C, fan mode, and roast for 30–40 minutes, or until golden.
  2. Toast chia seeds and flaxseeds together in a pan over medium‑low heat until the flaxseeds start popping/dancing, then remove from the pan.
  3. Let the roasted peanuts cool for about 5 minutes.
  4. After 5 minutes, the peanuts should still be very warm but not too hot to touch.
  5. Transfer the peanuts to a blender, add salt and sugar, and start blending.
  6. Whenever the blades begin to spin without crushing anything, stop and scrape down the sides and bottom with a spatula.
  7. Continue blending until it becomes a smooth texture.
  8. Add the toasted flaxseeds and chia seeds, and blend for seconds to combine.
  9. For the chocolate flavour, take a portion of the warm peanut butter and mix in cocoa powder and chocolate chips until fully incorporated.
  10. Layer both the original and chocolate peanut butter into containers, swirling lightly with a tool to mix them up a bit.
  11. Let cool, cover, and refrigerate—and you’re done! 🎉

小贴士 Tips

Peanut skins are actually richer in dietary fiber and antioxidants than the kernels themselves, so tossing them would be a real waste. As long as you slow‑roast the peanuts at 145–150°C, the skins won’t burn or taste bitter. But that’s not even the best part—the skins add a huge boost to the aroma, giving the peanut butter a deeper flavour. And let’s be honest—skipping the most annoying step of peeling the skins makes the peanut butter taste even better, right? Hehe.
