Put 1 pound of dry roasted unsalted peanuts into the food processor.

Turn on the food processor and let it run until the peanuts reach the desired consistency (creamy or crunchy).

Process the peanuts until they look like finely chopped nuts, then continue until they resemble wet sand.

Once the mixture starts to stick together but is still clunky, add a little bit of salt and mix again.

Continue processing until the peanut butter is smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.

Transfer the peanut butter to a glass jar for storage.
