Notes
Ingredient Substitution
Honey Roasted PeanutsI have found that Trader Joe's honey roasted peanuts yield the absolute best homemade peanut butter ever. If you'd prefer to use regular peanuts, or roast your own, that is totally great too.
Cocoa butter
This raw cocoa butter totally wins, plus it's super high in antioxidants and smells like heaven. If you don't keep cocoa butter on hand, feel free to substitute ghee or coconut oil.
Vanilla Beans
If you don't have vanilla beans you could substitute vanilla extract...although I highly recommend using beans if you can. Vanilla bean paste is also a great alternative.
Storage
Keep this in an airtight container for up to 2 months (if it lasts that long).Nutrition
