Cinnamon Raisin Peanut Butter – Adapted from Healthy Food For Living
yield: about 1 cup (eight 2 Tbsp servings)
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups roasted, unsalted peanuts, preferably organic
- 1 Tbsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp Kosher salt
- 2 tsp evaporated cane juice (I used granulated sugar)
- 1 1/2 tsp canola oil, divided (I omitted this, since Zack processed this to a drippy form)
- 1/4 cup raisins, preferably organic
Directions:
- Place peanuts into the bowl of a food processor. Process until peanuts break down into a paste and a ball forms, scraping down the sides as necessary, about 5 minutes.
- With the motor running, stream in 1 tsp oil and process until a smooth butter forms.
- Add in the cinnamon, salt, and evaporated cane juice and puree until well-combined. Stream in the remaining 1/2 tsp canola oil if needed. Remove blade from food processor bowl and stir in the raisins by hand.
