Equipment

  • Blender

Ingredients
  

  • 3-5 tbsp yellow mung bean
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup hoisin sauce
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • mung bean leftover water

Instructions
 

  • On the stove, cover the dry mung bean with just enough water. Bring to a boil and then a simmer for about 5 minutes.
  • While that is cooking, grab your blender. Add the peanut butter, hoisin sauce, and honey.
  • After the beans have cooked, scoop the beans out and toss them in the blender with the rest of the ingredients.
  • Blend until smooth. If it is too dry, add some water from the cooked down mung bean
  • After you have the consistency that you like, transfer to a mason jar and let it cool down before you put it in the fridge
  • Enjoy the sauce on anything your heart desires

Notes

  1. If you like a more textured peanut sauce, you can add more mung bean and/or use crunchy peanut butter 
  2. If you like a smoother peanut butter, use less mung bean and/or use smooth peanut butter
