Ingredients
2 cups raw peanuts
1 cup white sugar
½ cup water
Directions
- Combine the peanuts, sugar and water in a medium saucepan.
- Place over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar has dissolved.
- Continue cooking while stirring continuously. As the liquid evaporates, the sugar will begin to crystallise and coat the peanuts.
- Keep stirring until all of the liquid has evaporated and the peanuts are evenly coated in a dry, sugary coating.
- Remove from the heat and spread the peanuts onto baking paper or a tray to cool completely before serving.
Kitchen Notes
- Continue stirring throughout the cooking process to prevent the sugar from catching on the base of the saucepan.
- Contains peanuts, so this recipe is not suitable for nut-free lunchboxes or childcare settings.
