Most ot the other sites say to roast at 350°F for anywhere from 25 minutes to an hour! But my peanuts are so fresh and pretty I didn’t want to risk any waste by burning or uneven roast. So I decided to only roast at 250°F for 15 minutes shaking once. Didn’t add any oil or seasoning. Turned out gently roasted and very pleasant. The peanuts actually tasted good to me just cracked raw from the shell. I love them both ways. Thanks for the guidance.
