And removing the skins makes it easier to digest, so that was a great move. I just made a batch that didn't roast long enough and it gave our PB a raw taste and it was whiter. Yuck. So it seems the key is to roast it long enough.Katie Riddlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03842697893979039395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8387877928907784339.post-70190090398297876972011-05-27T18:10:39.216-07:002011-05-27T18:10:39.216-07:00Great meal & snack ideas! I can't wait to ...Great meal & snack ideas! I can't wait to try the baked oatmeal. Harper has been having a hard time switching back to rolled oats from instant oats. :( <br /><br />I have a question though, what's your process for making PB? I have tried two ways so far & I loved the first, but not the second; Harper didn't like either. Here's what I did...<br /><br />1st try- I soaked raw peanuts (w/ skins) in salt water overnight & then dehydrated (@ 145, that's as high as mine goes) til they were crunchy. Then I added about 3 C nuts to my VitaMix & processed until smooth, adding 1 T honey, a pinch of salt, & a little expeller pressed coconut oil, maybe 2 T. It was a little hard (I store it in the fridge) but tasted amazing, I couldn't get enough of it. But Harper thought it tasted weird, I thought maybe it was because of the skins. :(<br /><br />2nd try- I soaked & dehydrated like the 1st time but then my wonderful hubby removed all the skins for me. I thought that might help the flavor. Then I added about 2 C nuts & 1/2 C expeller pressed coconut (I thought extra oil would make it less hard, I failed to remember that coconut oil solidifies @ 75 degrees no matter how much I use, haha) & 1 t salt (it needed extra salt because it tasted bland at first) to my VitaMix & processed until smooth. It poured right out! Way too soupy & tastes kinda "raw-ish" without the skins. Plus, it looks like mayo! :( <br /><br />Help?!?!Alliehttp://www.this-precious-life.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8387877928907784339.post-87314882368227844202011-05-21T16:38:19.632-07:002011-05-21T16:38:19.632-07:00I LOVE that you're teaching your children heal...I LOVE that you're teaching your children healthy habits, and getting them involved in the kitchen! What a wonderful way to teach them about food and caring for their bodies (and later on their own families!). Your menu plan looks really yummy... I think I'll have to try some of the recipes. Thanks for the inspiration!Kelseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12606702850609782420noreply@blogger.com
