Groundnut candy, also known as peanut brittle, is a popular sweet treat made primarily with roasted groundnuts (peanuts), sugar, and sometimes a touch of butter or spiced flavoring. Widely enjoyed in various parts of the world, it is especially common in African, Asian, and American cuisines, with each region offering its unique spin on the recipe. Groundnuts are packed with protein, healthy fats, and essential vitamins like vitamin E, making them a nutrient-dense ingredient. However, the high sugar content in groundnut candy moderates its health benefits, as excessive sugar consumption can contribute to weight gain and heightened blood sugar levels. This crunchy delight complements festive occasions and makes for a quick energy-boosting snack, but it’s best enjoyed in moderation to balance indulgence with health-conscious choices.
