You don’t need to wonder what’s in the peanut butter when you make your own. Soybeans and peanuts help control blood sugar and contain antioxidants, as do olive oil and honey.

Makes 2 cups.

2 c. roasted peanuts
1 1/2 c. unsalted soy nuts (roasted soybeans)
3 T. honey
5 to 7 T. extra virgin olive oil

Place all ingredients in a food processor with the knife blade; process 3 to 4 minutes. Add more oil for a smoother spread, less for a crunchier spread.
