Maple nut crunch
I like to make it with peanuts, but honestly use the nuts you like, it's delicious with almonds, cranberries and pumpkin seeds for example!
Maple nut crunch
Ingredients
1 cup of maple syrup
4 tablespoons of peanut butter (or other nuts)
2 cups of'' dry roasted peanuts*
Instructions
- In a skillet over medium heat, add the peanut butter and maple syrup. Stir constantly to avoid burns.
- Cook the 2 ingredients together for about 4 minutes, or until the consistency is thick enough. You can use the cold water method to check the consistency. (Have a cup of cold water next to you and pour some of the mixture into the cup. Once it has reached a small ball consistency that is flexible between your fingers, you can add the nuts.
- Cook an additional 2 to 3 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Pour the mixture onto parchment paper and spread. Place in the refrigerator.
- When completely cool, use a sharp knife and cut it into individual pieces.
- Store in the refrigerator or at room temperature (it will become softer)
* The good thing about this recipe is that you can cook it a little more or a little less. I prefer the mixture to be a little soft and chewy, but cooking it a little longer will make it hard and crunchy.
* You can also mix coarsely chopped nuts, dried fruits and seeds (peanuts, dried cranberries, raisins, natural almonds, salted almonds, cashews, pumpkin seeds, Sun-flower seeds, linseedEtc.).
Bon appétit!
