The peanuts are ground twice. First they are ground into small pieces. A second grinding stage, which may combine the [[peanut]] [[butter]] with salt, sweetener, and often a stabilizer to keep the oil from separating, grinds them finely. The oils will separate after a time; unstabilized varieties in particular are best refrigerated to prevent the oil from separating out, but which makes the butter harder to spread. "Natural" peanut butters have been introduced which use [[palm oil]] as a stabilizer so as not to require stirring. Crunchy peanut butter has small pieces of whole [[peanuts]] mixed in.
