Prep time: about 10 minutes
Ingredients:

1 1/2 c. unsalted roasted peanuts
1 tbsp. peanut oil

Directions:
For smooth peanut butter:

Mix the peanuts with the peanut oil, and pour the mixture into a food processor.

Store your smooth peanut butter in a sealed container in the fridge. It will be good for 2 weeks.

For chunky peanut butter:

Take about 1/4 cup out of your 1 1/2 cups of peanuts and set them aside.
Mix the rest of the peanuts with the oil, and pour the mixture into a food processor.
Process the mixture until it's very smooth, then stir in the peanuts that you had set aside.
Process a few seconds more to create the chunks in your chunky peanut butter.
