Valencia Peanut And Flax Seed Butter

• 2 cups valencia peanuts
• 1/4 cup brown flax seed
• 1/4 cup golden flax seed
• salt, to taste
• oil, to blend as needed
• sugar (optional)

1. Roast the peanuts either on the stove top or in the oven until golden brown, adding the flax seeds the last 6-8 minutes of roasting. Be *very careful* not to burn the peanuts or flax seeds! Stir often! I would recommend stove top roasting with this step (a cast iron skillet being ideal). After roasting, set aside to cool slightly.
2. Place the peanuts and flax seeds in a food processor or blender and blend to desired consistency adding a little bit of oil to help blend the butter smoothly. Season with salt, to taste. Optional: Add sugar if desired, to desired sweetness.
3. Transfer the mixture to a container and cover (I use a recycled canning jar). We keep the nut/seed mixture refrigerated.
4. Stir the nut/seed butter each time before spreading to distribute the oils.
