Caramelised Nuts Recipes

CARAMELISED NUTS

Steps:

• Mix together all the ingredients in a pan and place over a moderate heat. Stir constantly, allowing the mix to caramelise and turn brown and making sure all the nuts are well coated.
• Pour the nuts onto some greaseproof paper. Don't worry if they are stuck together, as they can be separated when cool. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

5 MINUTE PERFECT CARAMELIZED NUTS

Steps:

• Add nuts, sugar, and butter to a large nonstick skillet and heat over medium heat. Stir constantly with a rubber heat-proof spatula until the sugar melts into the butter and completely coats the nuts, turning the heat down as needed, approximately 5-7 minutes.
• Immediately transfer nuts to parchment paper and immediately separate using 2 forks OR let the nuts harden together and break them apart with your fingers once cooled. The nuts and coating will harden in 5-7 minutes. Chop the nuts if desired.

CARAMELIZED NUTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Toast hazelnuts in a shallow baking pan until fragrant and a shade darker, about 8 minutes.
• When hazelnuts are cool enough to handle, wrap in a kitchen towel and rub to remove skins. (Not all skins will come off.) Transfer hazelnuts to a large bowl with almonds, cashews, pecans, and walnuts. Line baking pan with foil and lightly oil.
• Bring sugar, water, and honey to a boil in a small saucepan over moderate heat, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Pour over nuts and stir until nuts are well coated. Transfer nuts with a slotted spoon to baking pan (discarding syrup) and roast in 1 layer in middle of oven, stirring and redistributing nuts occasionally, until golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Lightly oil another sheet of foil and put on a work surface. Spread nuts in 1 layer on foil and cool completely. Break apart any nuts that are stuck together.

CARAMEL NUTS

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Preheat the oven to 250 F. Place the nuts in a 9x13-inch baking pan and set aside.
• Combine the brown sugar, corn syrup, butter, and salt in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir while the butter melts and sugar dissolves, and let the whole mixture come to a slow boil.
• Boil the mixture for four minutes without stirring. Once the four minutes is up, remove the pan immediately from the heat. Add the baking soda and vanilla to the brown sugar mixture in the pan, and stir it in quickly.
• Immediately pour the bubbling brown sugar mixture over the nuts in the pan, and stir until the nuts are thoroughly coated with the caramel.
• Place the pan in the preheated oven, and bake the caramel nuts for 40 minutes, stirring after every 10 minutes to prevent burning. As they bake, they'll darken in color and emit a wonderful caramel smell.
• After 40 minutes, remove the nuts from the oven. Scrape them onto a baking sheet covered with foil or a silicone baking liner. Separate the nuts with a fork so they're not clumped up. Allow them to cool completely at room temperature. If you do have any big chunks of nuts, break them up once they're cool and crunchy.
• Enjoy your caramel nuts immediately, or store them in an airtight container or zip-top bag at room temperature for up to two weeks.

SALTED CARAMEL NUTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Combine the nuts on a sheet pan, spread them out, and roast them for 7 minutes, until they become fragrant. Set aside to cool.
• After the nuts are cooled, place the sugar and 1/4 cup of water in a medium (10-inch) saute pan and mix with a fork until all of the sugar is moistened. Cook over medium-high heat until the sugar melts -- from this point on, don't stir the caramel, swirl the pan! Don't worry -- the mixture may look as though it's crystallizing. Continue to cook for 5 to 10 minutes, until the mixture becomes a clear golden brown, swirling the pan constantly at the end. (Careful -- the caramel is very hot!) Off the heat, quickly add the vanilla (it will bubble up!) and swirl the pan to combine. Working quickly (the caramel will continue to cook in the pan), add the nuts and the kosher salt and toss with 2 large spoons until the nuts are completely coated.
• Pour the nuts and any extra caramel in the pan onto a sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Spread the nuts out in one layer, pulling them apart with two forks. Sprinkle with the fleur de sel and set aside to cool. When they're completely cooled, carefully break the nuts into large clusters with your hands, trying not to break the nuts too much.

CARAMELIZED MACADAMIA NUTS
