Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the peanuts in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Roast the peanuts in the preheated oven for about 8-10 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until they are lightly browned and aromatic. Let them cool slightly once done.
Transfer the roasted peanuts to a food processor while still warm and process for 1-2 minutes until the peanuts turn crumbly. Scrape down the sides as needed.
Continue processing the peanuts for another 2-3 minutes until smooth and creamy. If needed, scrape down the sides to ensure even blending.
Add the protein powder, honey, salt, and peanut oil to the food processor. Blend for an additional 2 minutes or until the ingredients are well combined and the peanut butter reaches your desired consistency.
Taste and adjust sweetness or salt according to your preference.
Transfer the high protein honey peanut butter to an airtight jar or container and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Enjoy your homemade high protein honey peanut butter on slices of toast, in smoothies, or as a dip!
