How to stir peanut butter in 30 seconds.

My wife is deathly allergic to peanuts, and I just had a peanut butter sandwich for lunch.

No kissing!

Sixdogs is speaking of 100% natural pb, where the oil tends to separate out over time due to the absence of additives found in the processed version, such as hydrogenated vegetable oil.

For me, I confess to being an off-the-shelf Jif Extra Crunchy guy. :licking:

Now I'm hungry.

Jif is the best tasting peanut butter on the market, and no stirring.

One of my sons staples is peanut butter, he eats A LOT!! So we stay with the good stuff, I HATE stirring it as it is next to impossible to do it without getting it on something. I will look for a dough hook like the OP mentions, looks like a good method.

My kids have only ever had 100% natural peanut butter. If they ever have the pleasure of tasting the good old Jif or Skippy upon which I grew up, and if their heads don't just explode on the spot, they may never forgive their mother for a decade of forcing that 100% natural stuff on them.

And follow the advice. Store PB upside down and put jar in hot water up to its neck for an hour or so before you open and mix.
Take it easy at first, get the areas at the bottom of the jar and have wife hold jar while mixing.

Start slow and read this thread for developments that were discovered along the way. When done, I bet it's the best PB you have ever had. Son should elevate you to legendary status.

Then - with a medium to wide sheetrock spatula - carefully scrape the results off - ceiling, walls and floor. Forget the dust. Remove the dog hair, dust bunnies and other associated trash.

Also find the part where we talk about storing PB upside down and then putting the unopened jar in hot water for an hour or so before mixing. the heat turns the PB to almost liquid and it mixes real easy. It's the best PB he will ever have.

Major discovery recently since we found a different mixer blade that works faster and better. It mixed peanut butter more thoroughly in the bottom of the jar and didn't leave compacted corners of PB. Impressive performance so the dough hook in the first post of this thread has been superseded by the hand mixer blade shown below.


Wife says it's from a Cuisinart mixer that she got rid of. This has me thinking of a PB&J sandwich one day soon.

After reading on this forum how to mix peanut butter, I bought a mixer from Amazon and the dough hook looks just like

yours and works great.

I don't stir it. I just dump the oil that forms on top and use the thick stuff in the mouse traps.
