1. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and gently toast the rolled oats for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until they turn golden and release a nutty aroma. Set aside to cool.
2. In a food processor, blend the roasted peanuts on high speed for about 3-4 minutes. Pause and scrape down the sides as needed until the mixture turns into a thick peanut butter consistency.
3. Add the toasted oats to the food processor and pulse a few times to incorporate them without completely blending—they should retain their crunch.
4. Add honey, coconut oil, and salt to the food processor. Blend on low speed until all the ingredients are well combined and the mixture becomes smooth but textured with bits of oats.
5. Transfer the spread to an airtight container and store it in the refrigerator. Let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before use to soften slightly.
6. Serve on toast, as a dip for fruits, or use as a filling for sandwiches and baked goods.
