This delicious old-fashioned peanut brittle recipe makes for a perfect holiday season gift for colleagues, teachers, friends, and family.

Provided by Diana Rattray

Categories     Dessert     Candy

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
1/2 cup water
1 cup butter (plus about 1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons for greasing the pans)
3 cups dry roasted peanuts
1 teaspoon baking soda

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Line a work surface with heatproof pads or pot holders. Generously grease 2 (13 x 9 x 2-inch) rimmed baking sheets. Place the prepared sheets on the protected work surface.
  • In a large saucepan with a candy thermometer attached, combine the sugar, corn syrup, and water.
  • Cook the sugar mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the sugar dissolves. Bring the sugar mixture to a boil. Carefully add the butter, stirring until melted. Begin to stir frequently when syrup reaches the thread stage, about 230 F.
  • When the temperature reaches the soft-crack stage (280 F), add the peanuts. Stir constantly until hard-crack stage (300 F), is reached.
  • Remove from heat and stir in baking soda. Mix well to combine.
  • Immediately pour the mixture evenly into the prepared baking pans.
  • As the peanut brittle cools, stretch it thinner by lifting and pulling at the edges with forks. Loosen the brittle from the pans after about 7 to 8 minutes, flipping the brittle over while the mixture is still semi-solid and flexible (the mixture should be removed from the pans as quickly as possible to avoid sticking).
  • Break the hardened candy into pieces as desired. Store in an airtight container.

QUICK PEANUT BRITTLE



Quick peanut brittle image

Break this salted peanut brittle into shards to decorate puds or give as a gift to a foodie friend. It will keep for several weeks in an airtight container

Provided by Liberty Mendez

Time 7m

Yield Makes 300g

Number Of Ingredients 3

200g caster sugar
100g roasted peanuts
1 tsp sea salt flakes

Steps:

  • Line a baking tray with baking parchment. Melt the sugar in a medium frying pan over a medium heat for 4-5 mins until caramelised - it should be a dark amber colour. Don't stir, as this causes the sugar to crystallise - instead, tilt the pan slowly so the sugar melts evenly.
  • Add the peanuts, stir with a wooden spoon, then quickly and carefully tip onto the prepared tray. Immediately sprinkle over the sea salt flakes and leave to cool until set. Will keep for several weeks in an airtight container.

PEANUT BRITTLE



Peanut Brittle image

A picture of salty-sweet perfection, brittle is surprisingly easy to make. Serve it alongside coffee or tea for dessert, and save any leftovers for snacking. Peanuts make a classic brittle, but you can substitute cashews or almonds instead.
