Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the unsalted peanuts evenly on a baking sheet.
Roast the peanuts in the oven for about 5 minutes, or until they are warm and lightly toasted. This step enhances the flavor of the peanuts and helps in easy blending.
Once roasted, remove the peanuts from the oven and let them cool slightly for a few minutes.
Transfer the warm peanuts to a food processor. Process for about 2-3 minutes, until the peanuts are finely ground and begin to clump together.
Add the honey, salt, peanut oil, and vanilla extract (if using) to the processor. Continue processing for another 2-3 minutes, scraping down the sides as necessary, until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Taste the peanut butter and adjust the salt or honey, if you desire a slightly different flavor balance.
Once the desired consistency and flavor are achieved, transfer the peanut butter to an airtight container and store it in the refrigerator for up to one month.
Enjoy your sugar-free homemade honey peanut butter on toast, in baked goods, or as a healthy snack.
