From Almond Butter to Peanut Butter...

A few weeks ago I posted a recipe for "Home Spun Almond Butter".
I said in that post that I thought for sure you could apply the recipe to your nut of choice...
Today I decided to put action to my presumption! Our store bought natural peanut butter jar was running low and I had a bag of blanched, raw peanuts so... no time like the present!

I was right! With just a few minor adjustments to the recipe, it turned out beautifully... and delicious!

Here's how it goes:
