Wow! Before my wife found this video I had to mix the peanut butter for her. *NOW* I have to mix the peanut butter for her *AND* buy a new immersion blender! Thanks Living Traditions Homestead!
SantaMuerte livE I don’t think Jaydapp meant you don’t mix the oil in and just eat it from the top. You’re supposed to turn the jar upside down before the first time you open it to get the oil to the bottom of the jar so that when you flip it back over it’s much easier and way less messy to mix the the oil since it’s at the bottom. Also each time the oil rises to the top the peanut butter absorbs some of it, making it less hard, therefore much easier to stir.
@SantaMuerte livE nah u stupid, peanut butter that separates are the good one without added substances that keeps it mixed, the one that the oul separates are the one's without additives
I thought she would never get to the point, and I can't afford a jar that standard size, no way is my immersion blender going to work in my smaller mouths jar of almond butter which is in plastic, not ideal but that's what I can afford, my luck it'll bust the plastic all up and it'll be trashed
I quit buying it because of the oil - I didn't realize that it would stay mixed and spreadable if kept in the fridge - THANKS so much for the brilliant idea. Some of the best ideas are the simplest ones.
I’m staring at the jar of peanut butter I just bought and tried to mix last night with a butter knife. It was me against the peanut butter and IT won. This morning that layer of oil was still pretty much floating on the top. Going to try the immersion blender, which has only one speed but I can pulse it, Thanks for this great idea, which I will try today.
Storing the emulsified jar of peanut butter in the refrigerator worked like a charm, nice and creamy and thick, easy to spread, right out of the refrigerator.
Excellent! Thank you for sharing and showing this. This will be great for my house where things like arthritis and fibromyalgia affect our hands. I am SO excited. 💛💛
Thank you so much! Before I saw this, I saw a video where somebody use their mixer. Their handmixer. And the beat or are you just kept getting disconnected from the motor. I don’t know why I didn’t think of using my stick blender. That’s great.
Just tried this. The solid part of the peanut butter was rock hard, I was having trouble getting a knife to go through it. I used my 30+ year old Braun hand blender, it worked like a charm. I cleaned the blender in an empty peanut butter jar of hot water and dish soap. This method is a winner for me.
I was looking through the comments to see if anyone had suggested doing that exact thing! This handles two obnoxious chores at once, since the last pb jar which is now empty needs to be rinsed before recycling!
This suggestion did not work for me but I found a better solution. For me the peanut butter/oil separation was more than shown in the is video - here it looks like the butter was fairly soft whereas mine (from Costco) was much harder, almost rock like, and my 550watt stick blender almost burned out while trying this. I figure this idea was on the right path but using wrong equipment so I pulled out my little hand mixer and inserted the dough hook that looks like a corkscrew. I figured the dough hook was designed to mix very thick mixtures and I was right - it worked much better and I got the peanut butter mixed fairly easily even though the hand mixer is only 275 watts - its just a better tool for this job. Thanks for the idea !!
Heh, I just use a stone polisher, designed to roll a box of stones and sand to polish the stones. Just put the peanut butter jar on the rollers and it will be mixed by morning, without any mess.
Sometime back I lost my WHITE Spaghetti fork! I can identify it by it having ONE tooth missing! And I see it on your counter right behind you! NOW I remember where I left it!!
Quick tip. Store your brand new jars upside down, that way the oil will migrate to the base of the jar so when you open it you can use a knife or fork to mix it without the oily overspill. The stick blender's great and will turn peanuts into PB for you but when you take it out it's covered and messy to get the PB off there I find. Your girls are so hilarious & natural in front of the camera too.
Looks like a pretty good technique. I am going to use it next time. I just did a large jar of peanut butter. I heated it in the microwave which softened it a bit then stirred it with a table knife. It worked but was harder than I would like it to be. Next time, the Immersion blender.
That's a very good video. One thing I found to make it even easier is to turn the jar upside down for a couple of days. What I used because I had no mixer was my battery drill and a 7/16 inch flat pit.
Great idea, though our PB comes in plastic containers so I used the whisk attachment but it wouldn’t get the very bottom, so I put the PB in a bowl and it is amazing how much smoother it is!❤
LMFAO!!😂 Me too. I just tried this with a Chefman 300 Watt 12-speed and smoke started pouring out. My wife is gonna kill me. Guess I need a more powerful one. 😬
Great Tip! I also store my jars upside down for a few days in an attempt to drive the oil to the bottom of the jar. Ever make your own homemade peanut butter? Dead simple! Just put peanuts in a food processor or blender and blend till smoothness desired Season to taste. Store in frig.
Thanks for the inspiration! Found this method online, idk if you’ve done it, thanks!! |||THE UPSIDE DOWN METHOD What I Did: I turned the jar of Smucker’s Natural Peanut Butter upside down in my pantry and left it that way for four days. Then right before opening it, I shook it for 20 to 30 seconds.
Thanks! I enjoyed your video and found it to be very helpful. You made me laugh. I thought the health benefits of natural pb was the exercise I got stirring for an hour.
I still use a dinner knife to stir natural peanut butter (crunchy), even up to 36 oz jars. Tip: use a dinner knife with a fairly thick handle: they are easier to use for this purpose. The secret is using heat. 1. Turn on the oven to 170 degrees for 20 minutes. 2. Turn the oven OFF. 3. Make sure the lid is tightly closed on the brand new jar. 4. Place the jar of peanut butter in the oven (middle rack) with the door closed for 30 minutes. Keep the oven turned off. 4. Remove the warm jar of peanut butter from the oven and stir the contents for 5 - 10 minutes. Take your time. The warm peanut butter is easy to stir without spilling the oil. Yes, I store my natural peanut butter in the refrigerator. The cold natural peanut butter is easy to spread and the oil will not separate as long as the peanut butter is kept refrigerated.
I use my stick blender too. It works great. One time I used the whisk on my stick blender and I broke it. Lesson learned. It works great. Thanks for sharing. By the way, Costco has organic natural peanut butter very decently priced. We go through a ton of it too.
Thank you for posting this. I thought about using my immersion blender but was afraid to try. I've been using the 'upside down' method, but there's still a lot of thick peanut butter at the bottom that's really hard to mix.
Better technique found. Stick a dough hook from a hand mixer in your cordless drill chuck, set the gear/speed to low, and churn it up super easy and no smoke from immersion blender motors.
Thank you! A few minutes ago, I was trying to mix my Teddie's All Natural PB and went online to find the perfect solution. I even have an immersion blender!
Glad the stick blender didn't cause the peanut butter to splash out of the jar! I tried using my stick blender to emulsify the oils in my bullet proof coffee. Yeah...what a mess. Never tried that again! LOL Your Kitchen Helpers made this good video into a great video!
I used to buy peanut butter like that. It had to be stirred. My stick blender was useless against it and caused more of a mess than if I had just stirred it with a knife. Then I started keeping the jars upside down on the shelf until I was ready to open it. That helped a lot. Now, I just buy peanut butter from the bulk foods department and can grind as many or as few peanuts as I want.
HOW MANY WATTS for Motor is required? Seems that 225 watts would not be enough, so a more expensive emulsion blender (like 500 watts?) would be required?
What a great hack! I quit buying natural peanut butter because of the messy oil issue. Since I now have an immersion blender I might just give it a try again. Thanks for sharing your tip! God bless y'all ☺
Yes, everyone who does a video likes to hear themselves talk. They want the video stretched out to 20 minutes instead on 60 seconds. However, she does have a good idea and she seems nice. Cute daughters.
Pour off the oil (so it doesn't splash). In the the glass jar (without the metal lid - cover with a ceramic bowl to prevent splashing), microwave for 1/2 minute (more or less, depending on your microwave) until the peanut butter is soft. Let the jar sit until it is cool enough to handle. Return oil to the jar (for minimum mess, leave 1/2 the peanut butter & put 1/2 the oil in the jar) and stir easily with a wide knife. Repeat with the rest of the peanut butter and oil. (Save your blender for jobs it is capable of doing).
& here I am aggressively stirring (exact brand, freshly opened) with a butter knife as I watch this...... You do in seconds what takes me minutes. Give me that device!!!!
The sugar is added to slow down the separation process and also because many people are addicted to sugar. Using the immersion blender is a bad idea for chunky peanut butter.
😠 I am so mad that I am just seeing this video! I needed this YEARS ago. My arm and back are broken from stirring peanut butter!😫. But, thanks! Awesome hack!
I had this same thought the other day while I was attempting to stir mine with a long butter knife! Wonder if it would make my crunch peanut butter creamy tho.....hmmmmm!
This is why UA-cam is so great- you can find and learn from people like this very resourceful and imaginative lady! I will never wear my arm out again after watching this. T*H*A*N*K Y*O*U*!
+Living Traditions Homestead I'm one of those girlies who absolutely loooooooooooooves peanut butter! Specifically I like the smooth kind. Since about 2017, I traded conventional peanut butter for its natural counterpart, switching from Skippy to Adams, thanks to my weight trainer, a woman named Stephanie. My American mom claimed I wouldn't like it, but I proved her so wrong. For me, Adams Natural Creamy Peanut Butter tastes like paradise! Since I'm blind, I wonder if this would work in a stand mixer? Which attachment would be best for this? I have a Kitchenaid Classic 4-½ quart Stand Mixer that comes with three attachments. There's a flat beater, a wire whisk, and a dough hook. I'd like to do this in a way that won't strain the machine, or worse, make a mess of the kitchen counter! I've tried stirring with a regular kitchen spoon, and woo boy, that made a big mess of oil!
The only inconvenience is that peanut butter gets under the blades into the cracks of where the shaft of the blade comes out of and it builds bacteria that then will mix into whatever you mix next.
This woman is a trained professional. Do not try this at home. I tried it with an electric beater and I just spent 30 minutes cleaning my kitchen of peanut oil. ALL I WANTED WAS A SANDWICH! :)
It's not that hard to stir it with a thick, dull table knife. Less resistance than a spoon, and less displacement for the material to rise up and spill out, and it is easy to lick it clean or rub over it it with fingers. The blender has more volume. P/b gets thick and once the oil is fully incorporated. Most kitchen power tools have plastic gears that will be destroyed, and it's impossible to move it with a spoon.
Wow! Before my wife found this video I had to mix the peanut butter for her. *NOW* I have to mix the peanut butter for her *AND* buy a new immersion blender! Thanks Living Traditions Homestead!
Right?!
@@gypsydayle7083 wont blending ruin chunky pb ?
Seriously my husband burned out my immersion blender doing this. But it wasn’t the fault of this video, he came up with that brilliant idea himself.
Store your jar upside down... The oil will go to the bottom then you can stir it up from there if you need to.
SantaMuerte livE I don’t think Jaydapp meant you don’t mix the oil in and just eat it from the top. You’re supposed to turn the jar upside down before the first time you open it to get the oil to the bottom of the jar so that when you flip it back over it’s much easier and way less messy to mix the the oil since it’s at the bottom. Also each time the oil rises to the top the peanut butter absorbs some of it, making it less hard, therefore much easier to stir.
Not always, you will eventually have to mix
@SantaMuerte livE nah u stupid, peanut butter that separates are the good one without added substances that keeps it mixed, the one that the oul separates are the one's without additives
I could see that leaking all over the counter
As long as you store it upside down for 2 days minimum this definitely works like a charm
She talks for a long time, but tldr; Use an immersion blender immersed about 1" down and pulse it and mix it at various depths
Then go onto Amazon to replace your burnt out blender.
I thought she would never get to the point, and I can't afford a jar that standard size, no way is my immersion blender going to work in my smaller mouths jar of almond butter which is in plastic, not ideal but that's what I can afford, my luck it'll bust the plastic all up and it'll be trashed
Thank you so much watched two minutes and wanted to throw a peanut butter jar at her she won’t shut up!!!
Great idea, Sarah! Thanks for the kitchen hack! Your girls are so cute fighting over the peanut butter! 😄

I use a beater from my hand mixer and an electric drill. Works great and no mess.
Really like your technique.
That's some big brain thinking lol thanks for the idea
Thanks for the innovative idea. I was disappointed cause I realized I’d have to buy more gadgets in the kitchen 🙄
Thank you so much! Before I saw this, I saw a video where somebody use their mixer. Their handmixer. And the beat or are you just kept getting disconnected from the motor.
I don’t know why I didn’t think of using my stick blender. That’s great.
To keep it simple and cheap I cut the hook off a wire coat hanger and put it in my Ryobi drill. Easy clean up too.

No joke.
Just another smart reason to use my hand blender that I didn’t think of. Thank you.
Thank you! A few minutes ago, I was trying to mix my Teddie's All Natural PB and went online to find the perfect solution. I even have an immersion blender!

A single mixer beater in a cordless drill works too, plastic jar only! That’s what I do when my wife isn’t home.
Wonderful!

Donna Callahan I trashed my expensive KitchenAid submersible blender in 5 minutes trying to blend separated peanut butter.
Just buy some tall cups from Dollar Tree. Thats what I use to blend up my bulletproof coffee in.

Thank you so much, I wanted to try this but you go first lol! Now I'm gonna have a go.

Yes, everyone who does a video likes to hear themselves talk. They want the video stretched out to 20 minutes instead on 60 seconds. However, she does have a good idea and she seems nice. Cute daughters.
I wish I could find a hack on how to get the plastic width. Then I can microwave it for a few seconds and soften it up to make it easier to blend
Oops! I meant to say the foil under the plastic lid, not plastic width :-(
which immersion stick blender are you using please ?
Great video! what's that attachment you're using called please?!
Thanks I always have PB down my shirt but no more
OMG!!! I would have NEVER known!!! Thanks so much for this.. doing this right now so I can make me some pb cookies! lol

I use a cordless drill and some metal shish kabab skewers works great
OH WOW!!!!
The sugar is added to slow down the separation process and also because many people are addicted to sugar. Using the immersion blender is a bad idea for chunky peanut butter.

Amazing! Do you think it’ll work okay in plastic jars?
😠 I am so mad that I am just seeing this video! I needed this YEARS ago. My arm and back are broken from stirring peanut butter!😫. But, thanks! Awesome hack!
I would suggest that you store the natural butter upside down. That way when you use this hack the oil will be on the bottom instead of the top.
I had this same thought the other day while I was attempting to stir mine with a long butter knife! Wonder if it would make my crunch peanut butter creamy tho.....hmmmmm!
Lol! It probably will. I never thought of that because we like creamy peanut butter. 😊
Great idea. THANKS!
I hope it works for you! Thanks so much for watching.
Blew mine up, in seconds. Though I am still looking for another solution.
Maybe a drill and small paint mixing blade.
If they like it that much, source some bulk roasted peanuts and food processor to make your own :)
This sounds like a very good idea.
Wow! This killed my Cuisinart blender in 5-seconds flat. Where do we send the bill for this terrible advice?
Mine is Hamilton beach and it started smoking. This is the 3rd time I’ve ever used it 🙄
You can send the bill to 1082 followyoutubeadviseatyourownrisk ave. Stopblamingotherpeopleville, NY 10026
Is it because the peanut butter was too thick?
This is why UA-cam is so great- you can find and learn from people like this very resourceful and imaginative lady! I will never wear my arm out again after watching this.
T*H*A*N*K Y*O*U*!
Also, buy unsalted (more healthy) version. Add a small amount of salt to taste, when you stir, if you need a little salt.
I sprinkle mine when spreading it, as my husband needs less salt in his diet, while I need more.

Great video! Great minds think a like! This is my favorite brand of P'butter and this is exactly how I blend it too!
3:51 for the guide. (spoiler: the tip is use mixer).
Great idea but I buy crunchy peanut butter and would lose the crunch factor.
The only inconvenience is that peanut butter gets under the blades into the cracks of where the shaft of the blade comes out of and it builds bacteria that then will mix into whatever you mix next.
Would the dishwasher do the trick? Or maybe running the blender in really hot soapy water?
Just store it upside down for a day or two. All the oil goes to the bottom making it easy peasy to stir.
Dump the oil out into a container and use it to fry up your next meal that requires oil to fry. Peanut oil is good oil.
the oil is needed for the pb to be spreadable
This woman is a trained professional. Do not try this at home. I tried it with an electric beater and I just spent 30 minutes cleaning my kitchen of peanut oil. ALL I WANTED WAS A SANDWICH! :)
I just heat it a little in the microwave or put the jar in hot water and stir with a chopstick.
We prefer using the Grandpa Witmer old fashioned self-cleaning hand mixer....inexpensive and fun to use
How long does it stay mixed before separating again?
If you store it in the fridge, it doesn't separate again.
go to 3:55 for the hack
It's not that hard to stir it with a thick, dull table knife. Less resistance than a spoon, and less displacement for the material to rise up and spill out, and it is easy to lick it clean or rub over it it with fingers. The blender has more volume.

We have a bulf food store that has a machine that lets you grind your own peanut butter
3 minutes in to get to the point... it’s a hand mixer 😢
