Freshly made Peanut butter

Peanut butter made from just peanuts – how did we do that?...

Ever wondered how peanut butter is made? In a nutshell (boom-boom!), thousands of squirrels are forced to gather nuts and crack them open with little hammers before chucking them in a gargantuan blender powered by chimps, who trundle away 24/7 on treadmills whilst elephant commandants crack the whip. All right, so that’s not entirely true. But it’s only slightly less implausible than the amazing Peanut Butter Maker.

Believe it or not, this compact contraption churns out deliciously gloopy, warm peanut butter in seconds. All you do is chuck in your nuts *insert suitably lame joke as required* and flip the switch. That’s it. No oils, fats or additives required. You can even choose between chunky or smooth. Willy flippin’ Wonka!

Tip: Keep turning the top handle to help the churned up peanuts through

Although you’re probably drooling at the thought of all that salty/sweet peanuty goo, you can use any shelled nuts you fancy. How about cashews or pistachios? Or why not go for a touch of nutty decadence with a batch of macadamias? Who’d have guessed crushing your nuts could be so entertaining!

An ideal gift for peanut butter nutters or anyone who enjoys spreading pulverised nuttiness on their toast and bagels, this easy-to-clean, mains powered device is destined to become one of your favourite kitchen appliances. Processed peanut butter straight from the jar? Blurgh! Freshly ground gloop from your favourite nuts? Now you’re talking. Pass the toast, this thing’s the nuts!

NB: Yes, we’re fully aware of the whole legume/seed/nut debate, but for the sake of clarity we’ve used the term nut. Now clear off. And don’t forget your anorak.

Press Reviews...

press review Fresher than those jars that have been sitting around forever. Tastes good too, but not to those with nut allergies.
Flipside - Mar '10
press review "The simplicity of the Firebox peanut-butter maker is half its charm - feed in the nuts (you can use almost any type) and the machine churns them into butter."
Telegraph Magazine - Dec '09
press review "Breakfast will never be the same once you've got a Peanut Butter Maker."

visitor avatar This creates the perfect gift for people who have it all.
Hamish, Woodbridge - 3rd December 2010
visitor avatar Does it need butter?
Dylan, - 21st November 2010
Firebox says: No, just peanuts! No oil or additives required.
visitor avatar Do you deliver this to America?
Robert, America - 16th November 2010
Firebox says: I'm afraid it is an EU only product.
visitor avatar So is this a good thing to buy? Cause I am a child and I love peanutbutter.
Katelin, - 15th November 2010
Firebox says: If you love Peanut butter you'll loooooooooove the Peanut Butter Maker!.
visitor avatar If purchased now and given as a christmas gift how long do we have to return it incase other half doesn't like it?
Lucy, Wolverhampton - 11th October 2010
Firebox says: Our current return period for unwanted gifts is 30days. However, towards the end of November we will be introducing a longer Christmas return policy so it may be worth waiting to place your order.
visitor avatar OK- so its noisy, but I could put up with that if the machine actually does what it says it will. It broke after about 3 uses, not to mention smelling like it was going to explode from the first use. It is so difficult to clean as well, so I have had a broken, grubby looking thing sat in the pantry for 8 weeks! I am sending mine back to firebox today.
Donna, Ipswich - 23rd May 2010
Firebox says: Sounds like you got a faulty unit, Donna. Please email us on info@firebox.com and we'll arrange a replacement for you.
visitor avatar Hi, does this peanut butter need peanuts and butter, or just peanuts?
Darcey Powell, Accrington - 5th May 2010
Firebox says: Just nuts (of any kind).
visitor avatar Excellent product. A bit noisy and takes a while to crunch all the nuts together but once finished the end product is better than anything you can buy at the supermarket, try different combinations of nuts and possibly add a bit of chocolate. Love it and would recommend it to anyone who is a bit nutty!!
Carl Knowles, Bawtry - 17th March 2010
visitor avatar This is truly the worst product I have ever bought! This product does not make peanut butter, it simply take purely good nuts and spits out dust and a couple of blobs of 'butter' before over heating in less than 10 minutes! I even took other people advice and smashed my nuts up small chunks! It constantly smells like burning plastic and the instructions (if you can call them that) are simply atrocious! I HONESTLY do not understand how this product has got such positive reviews. I was really disappointed with my purchase and urge anyone who is considering this product to just go out to the supermarket/health store and buy some peanut butter!
Kriss, St. Helens - 3rd March 2010
Firebox says: Hi Kriss, That doesn't sound good at all! We're really sorry to hear about the problems you had. It's definitely a faulty unit and I can see we've got that back from you by Freepost for a full refund. Sorry we couldn't help you out this time, but I can assure you this is the exception rather than the rule with the Peanut Butter Maker!
visitor avatar This is AMAZING. Santa got me one for Xmas and I absolutely love it! People have been asking about it... yeah sure it makes quite a bit of noise, but for what? 20 minutes? and the peanut butter that comes out it SOOOO tasty!!! Me and my friend decided to make some nutella-style butter and it was amazing! (If you want to try it, just crush some hazelnuts a bit first, pop them in the machine, then melt some chocolate and add the nut paste in! yum yum!!!) This is a must buy for nut lovers, I'm not gonna lie, it can be a bit of a pain to clean, especially where the little part where the butter comes out, but you can easily solve that problem with a bit of kitchen roll wrapped around a blunt knife :) 5/5. One of the best gifts I've ever received!
