Making peanut butter

1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1½ pounds Roasted peanuts, unsalted in the shell
Salt to taste
2 tablespoons Cooking oil or margarine, to 3 tbsp
Hand - turned meat grinder or food grinder
Mixing spoon
Bowls for peanuts and shells
Serving bowl; knifes for spreading

Directions

Shell the peanuts using various methods. Using ones mouth is not acceptable, due to spread over germs. Younger children may need help. Take off peanut skins also. After a goodly supply has accumulated set up meat grinder and children begin grinding. Add oil, enough so mixture is spreadable. Add salt. Serve in a small bowl with crackers. Children are encouraged to spread their own peanut butter and enjoy this snack they have made themselves.
