Ingredients
- 2 cups Raw peanuts
- 0.5 cup Erythritol
- 1 teaspoon Stevia extract
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Water
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, combine erythritol, stevia extract, cinnamon, salt, vanilla extract, and water. Stir until erythritol is dissolved and the mixture begins to simmer.
Step 3
Add the raw peanuts to the skillet and stir to coat them evenly with the sweetener mixture.
Step 4
Continue cooking the peanuts over medium heat, stirring frequently, for about 5 to 7 minutes until the liquid is mostly evaporated and the peanuts are glazed.
Step 5
Spread the peanuts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the peanuts are nicely toasted and the coating is slightly hardened.
Step 7
Remove from the oven and allow the peanuts to cool on the baking sheet. The coating will continue to harden as they cool.
Step 8
Once fully cooled, store in an airtight container. Enjoy your sugar-free candied peanuts as a delightful snack or gift!
