Peanut Brittle

This classic peanut brittle is crunchy, sweet, and full of nutty flavor—perfect for snacking or gifting. Gather your ingredients, and let’s get cooking!

Ingredients

1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1/4 cup water
2 cups unsalted roasted peanuts
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Pinch of salt

Instructions

In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, light corn syrup, and water. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until the mixture comes to a boil.
Once boiling, stop stirring and allow the mixture to cook until it reaches a golden caramel color. This should take about 5-7 minutes, so keep a close eye on it.
Reduce the heat to low and carefully stir in the unsalted roasted peanuts. Cook for an additional 3-5 minutes until the peanuts are well-coated and the mixture reaches a hard crack stage (around 300°F or 150°C on a candy thermometer).
Remove the pan from heat and quickly stir in the butter, vanilla extract, baking soda, and a pinch of salt. The mixture will bubble up, so be cautious!
Immediately pour the hot peanut mixture onto a greased baking sheet or a marble slab. Spread it out with a spatula to your desired thickness.
Allow the peanut brittle to cool completely—this usually takes about 30 minutes.
Once cooled, break the brittle into pieces and enjoy your homemade treat, or package it up as a delightful gift!
