Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the unsalted roasted peanuts evenly on a baking sheet.
Roast the peanuts in the oven for about 5 minutes, or until they are warm and slightly more aromatic. This step enhances the peanuts' natural oils, making them easier to blend.
Remove the peanuts from the oven and allow them to cool slightly.
Transfer the peanuts to a food processor. Process them on high speed until they are crumbly, about 30 seconds.
Stop the processor and add the honey, peanut oil, and vanilla extract.
Continue processing the mixture, stopping occasionally to scrape down the sides of the bowl, until the peanut butter reaches your desired consistency. This can take several minutes. For a creamy peanut butter, continue processing until very smooth.
Taste and adjust sweetness by adding additional honey, if necessary. Blend again to incorporate any added honey.
Once the peanut butter is finished, transfer it to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks.
Serve the low sodium honey roasted peanut butter on toast, with fruit, or as desired.
