Perfect 5 Minute Glazed Nuts

Perfect 5 Minute Glazed Nuts

Cook Time: 5 minutes
Total Time: 5 minutes

Ingredients:

1 cup whole raw nuts
1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon butter

Directions:

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. The sugar will look grainy until the melting/liquifying process happens at the very end.

Immediately transfer nuts to parchment paper and separate using 2 forks, OR let the nuts harden together and break them apart with your fingers once cooled. Before cooling, I like to sprinkle with cracked sea salt. The nuts and coating will harden in 5-7 minutes. Chop the nuts if desired.

Notes:

*If using chopped nuts, don’t chop them too small or they will burn.
