3/4 cup dried Cranberries or Sultanas
3/4 cup unsweetened medium coconut
3/4 natural wheat bran
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cups Pepitas
1 tsp Himalayan salt

Directions:

1. Cream butter and peanut buter in large bowl. Add egg one at a time. Add honey and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth.

Recipe for "Raw Peanut Butter"


Ingredients:
1 cup raw, shelled peanuts
1 tablespoon cold pressed peanut oil
pinch sea salt, if desired

Preparation:

Place the peanuts and salt in a food processor and process until the nuts are finely ground. Add the oil and continue processing until the peanut butter reaches your desired degree of smoothness, adding more oil if necessary. For chunky peanut butter, stir in 1/4 cup chopped peanuts. Store, tightly covered, in the refrigerator.

(If you want to use a blender, I suggest doing only about 1/4 cup peanuts at a time so you don’t burn the motor out! :-o )
