How to make the creamiest Peanut Butter with your Vitamix

- I LOVE using my Vitamix every day but I'll admit that I don't make peanut butter that often. Why? I don't have a good reason because if you watch this video you'll see how easy and fast it is to do it yourself! I'm going to start making my own all the time.

I just spent nine minutes of my life watching a blender and I did it voluntarily.
LOL
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Me too….. Loved every minute of it!
You burned it out because you stayed in too low of a speed for too long. Try to crank it up to 10 for the nut butters. It’s better for the motor and works way better. Just a tip. Great job though on the creamy consistency
That might be right. The "official" Vitamix recipe book says "Start the blender on speed 1 and slowly increase to speed 10. Blend on 10 for 2-3 minutes, using the tamper to push the ingredients towards the blades if necessary, until you get a thick, liquid cream". That's instructions for hazelnut butter but I guess it should be similar for peanuts as well, although peanuts are a bit harder.
True. He needs to move to 10 so it doesn't overheat. And it won't. The faster the blade goes it cools the blender more. He could of made this alot faster if he started low speed then gradually went to high right away. No need to overheat by having it low speed that long. I make macadamia cream all the time with cream cheese. Delicious
I panicked the first time my vitamix overheated and conked out on me. I called the 1-800 number and the wonderful customer service woman helped me out. She explained that vitamix blenders are the most efficient and easiest on the motors when run at the highest speed setting. She said to try to get up to full speed as soon as possible and stay there. (This will eventually heat the ingredients so be aware) She said she wished this was clear in the operating manual but unfortunately it is not.
thx
I use store bought dry roasted unsalted peanuts to make my peanut butter. I put about 16 oz of those peanuts in the microwave for a couple minutes to get them heated up a bit before putting them in the blender so I don't have to run them as long in the blender to heat them up. I like my peanut butter to just be peanuts - no salt, no sugar, just peanuts. I've got a Vitamix 5200 that is a few years old, and I've never "burned up the motor" even when making a couple batches of peanut butter.
I was a rep for vitamix for a long time. Always blend nuts on highest setting and this most likely wont happen.
IKR. I kept watching to see when the Vitamix would overheat. Blend nuts on high.
Mine shut down about 12 times and I let it cool each time. Not doing that again afraid I will burn my motor out for good. I need this daily for my smoothies can't risk losing it. Should I give it another whirl on the highest setting
@christinebotelho8304 from what I heard running it in the high setting helps keep the motor cooler
@@christinebotelho8304the motor has to be in high for the fan to kick in. Blend nut butter on high.
That’s awesome I’ve never gone that creamy before! I just wanna throw my two cents out there, I don’t get the overheating thing when I crank it up to high speed. I have an ascent too
It doesn't happen every time but we wanted to show that it can happen and it's normal.
There was a lot of friction in the blender, that’s why the motor had to work harder. I’ve always just done it it intervals anyways to keep the peanut butter form overheating. Idk if it actually makes a difference in flavor and nutrition
I just made pecan butter. I do 2lb bags per batch. Roast em. Flip in 1 stick butter, salt while hot, flip again, salt if needed then back on the pan to cool completely. Then I put half the batch in blender. Let the nuts drop in volume. Add the other half and blend till smooth. I use the 1 speed. It’s slower but I don’t have any issues.
Excellent review thanks for sharing 👍
Good job, thanks for sharing 👍❤
Thanks!
I would have liked to see how you got it out
Where to buy yhat blender
Oh wow! Love your channel 😍 that’s how I like them haha, keep sharing! I’m subscribed to your channel 💪😊
Thanks for subbing!
Can you make praline paste in it?
I never tried blending that long. I just add a few drops of peanut oil and it goes creamy very quickly. No need to have a mega-powerful blender (that you still have to put in the freezer when it gets too hot??)
That was awesome. I really learned a lot about trust and confidence in the but butter process and in my Vitamix. Thank you for sharing!
Glad it was helpful!
@@Cook-Culture Same. Ive started trying to make almond butter with my new Vitamix (one of the cheaper all manual models) and i kept smelling a slight burning motor type of smell and the Vitamix would turn off on me and not restart. Plus my almond butter never got creamy - was just kind of gritty. I guess I just need to have more faith that the Vitamix can take a bit of a beating and just push through my fears of breaking the thing. lol Thanks so much for the video!
Why won't it separate like other natural peanut butters? Just curious, thanks for the video.
I started making my own but need a high power mixer. Thanks for the tips! Between a great peanut butter cookie recipe and a great whole wheat bread recipe I now have more excuses to make peanut butter. Besides, everything is getting so expensive. Any tips on the model???
I love my Vitamix but this is a lot easier using my food processor (I make peanut butter every couple of weeks).
Could you smoke the peanuts that would be pretty good smoked peanut butter
Yep, blenders are designed for wet ingredients, food processors for dry… then you can adapt but you pay the consequences.
The best would be a Robot Coup food processors/blitzer, check on youtube, they made nut butters in seconds, but they cost a pretty penny.
I haven't been able to get the same creaminess using a food pro. Could be the tool!
If you add a little peanut oil you could save the trouble of waiting for the blender to heat the nuts and likely get lower fat oxidation while achieving the same creaminess. Lube is always a good idea.
The test is to see if it can do the job without adding oil.
@@be.A.b testing patience along with heat and oxidation tolerance of the oil in the peanuts. If one wants a quality peanut butter don’t test these things, just make peanut butter.
@@phillipp1399 Can you use Olive Oil ? Thanks. PS: yes burning the motor out isn't good in the long run, eventually it won't start anymore when it's finally burnt out for good.
You don't need oil if you are patient.
@@brianbertine7037 you don’t need to wait or degrade the quality of the end product if you just use a little oil. Just because something is possible, doesn’t mean it’s worth your time or helps you in any way, shape, or form.
58 comments and no thumbs up??? I got you. Good job!

[me]: *freaks out*
[prensenter]: Don't freak out
[me]: Oh, OK then :)
Helpful video, thank you. I'd be scared to put the machine through such abuse lol but it does look like it can handle it. Good to see it's not actually breaking the machine or anything. Turned out really nice and creamy 🤩
A food processor works better without overheating
Does this pb need to be refrigerated after? Thanks
Doesn't need to be. I like it room temp!!
Just kidding with you love this video!
Hmmm.... as expensive as the vitamix blenders are they can't handle making pb without getting hot? I been considering purchasing one but I think now better not. Great video, thank you!!😁
You can’t run it on low as long as he did because it WILL stall. Start low for maybe 15 seconds and ramp up to high. High speed cools the motor. The Vitamix site has instructions….
“Directions
Place all ingredients into the Vitamix container in the order listed and secure the lid.
Run the Dips & Spreads Program or start the blender on its lowest speed, then quickly increase to its highest speed. Blend for 60 seconds, using the tamper to push ingredients toward the blades. For a creamy peanut butter blend for a total of 2 minutes.”
@@koalasez1200 I got a Ninja blender, it does a decent job, maybe not as creamy results as the Vitamix but it's decent.
Wow! New sub here! I recently made Jamaican Peanut Drops on my page too and *your dish looks amazing!* Hope to stay connected! 😀
Thanks and welcome
How funny! I said dude looks like Johnny Bravo”s little brother Leo Bravo! But it’s really Cosmo Bravo!😂
Whats the best way to store this recipe? Fridge or Pantry?
I keep my PB out of the fridge but we eat it quickly!
@@Cook-Culture awesome now long will it last outside the fridge?
Is that 300 degrees C or F?
300 F
okay but why isn't yours shaking furiously like mine is?? (its brand new btw so idk why it would be broken)
I'd reach out to Vitamix. They will help you.
Failed. My Vitamix shut off about 12 times and i allowed it to cool each time before i called it quits. Too afraid it would burn the motor out. I use it everyday for smoothies and can't risk loosing this expensive piece of kitchen equipment. I'll save the peanut butter making for the makers who have industrial machines
He ran the motor at low which he should not have... The Vitamix should always be on high when under heavy load, it's easier on the motor. Any official literature or material from Vitamix or one of their knowledgeable customer service reps will confirm this.
thx
I guess I've been using my Vitamix incorrectly when making peanut butter. I will have to give this method a try.
No, he did it wrong.
You shouldn't blend peanuts that low for any length of time, it's hard on the motor. This applies to any heavy load you put on the blender.
Don't do it the way he did! It is actually way harder on the motor. Get up to full power as soon as possible and keep it there 'til finished.@@nishiki393
How to toast a blender in 9.01 minutes.
Yoh that blender struggled
The steam is from the cold motor you just startrrd than ran hot for the second time...
If people follow your process they will blow out their motors....
Not a wise method
Hi, thanks. Can you please explain how they will blow their motors in a Vitamix by follow this method?
I will for him... because running at low speed is harder on the motor, especially under load, than running at high speed.
Also at high speed the fans go much faster to cool the motor.
These are basic things the Vitamix manual and instructional videos in various venues including TH-cam make pretty clear.
@@Cook-Culturethe fan kicks in on highest speed. Vitamix says to get it to 10 as quickly as possible and stay there. Push down with tamper until you get a low growl, then let that go for no more than 1 minute.
Why burn out a good blender when a food processor will do the very same thing with ease?
It doesn't do anything to a Vitamix
@@Cook-CultureIt does when you do it repeatedly like that at low speed. The Vitamix should always be run on high when under heavy load.
Now to find peanuts with no gmo or seed oils.. and no mold…
sigh
Wrong. Vitamix instructs you to run on high. Never run on low for that length of time.
“Place all ingredients into the Vitamix container in the order listed and secure the lid.
Run the Dips & Spreads Program or start the blender on its lowest speed, then quickly increase to its highest speed. Blend for 60 seconds, using the tamper to push ingredients toward the blades. For a creamy peanut butter blend for a total of 2 minutes.”
thx
I would never ever do that to my preciousss Vitamix. EVER. Could not stand to watch it suffer like that.
I won’t be transitioning kids anytime soon thank you! 😅
this video has inspired me to buy a peanut butter at super market rather than making it myself
Way too much work for too little gain. You just sold a store bought jug of PB.
Turn it up to 10 & this wont happen. The cooler turns on & you dont burn out your $600 blender. 😑
Do not buy that blender😢😢😢 please!
OK I will not
This is truly pitiful. A $5 Hamilton Beach food processor from a thrift store does 19 oz. Of peanut butter with no problem. This shows how underpowered this overpriced statis symbol is.
No this guy is just using this thing wrong. He's using a high powered blender and keeping it at low speed. I wouldn't trust this guy at all. The first half of this video is exactly the opposite way to use this blender.
really? no adding oil?
