Ingredients
- 200 grams Blanched almonds
- 150 grams Erythritol or allulose
- 60 grams Butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Spread the blanched almonds evenly on a baking sheet and toast them in the oven for about 8-10 minutes until they are golden brown and aromatic. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
Step 2
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
Step 3
In a medium saucepan, add the erythritol (or allulose) and butter. Melt over medium heat, stirring continuously until the mixture begins to bubble.
Step 4
Add the toasted almonds to the bubbling mixture. Continue to cook while stirring constantly to avoid burning, until the mixture reaches a golden amber color. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
Step 5
Remove the saucepan from heat and quickly stir in the vanilla extract, sea salt, and baking soda. The mixture will bubble up slightly due to the baking soda, which adds a lovely airy texture to the brittle.
Step 6
Immediately pour the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spreading it out as thinly as possible with a spatula.
Step 7
Allow the brittle to cool completely at room temperature. Once hardened, break it into bite-sized pieces.
Step 8
Store the Keto Almond Brittle in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.
