Vendor Style Honey Roasted Peanuts Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Place peanuts in a bowl.
• Heat butter and honey together, in microwave or on stove top, stirring well; Toss with peanuts.
• Spread peanuts on a cookie sheet and bake at 350F for 5 to 10 minutes; After the 1st 5 minutes check them & stir every 1 or 2 minutes until peanuts are golden brown - the glaze will thicken and darken.
• Remove, stir while cooling for 5 - 10 minutes until they no longer stick together.
• *Sprinkle with salt (optional) or mix it in with the honey & butter mixture; you can also toss with sugar.
• *I saw these at a Chinese restaurant covered with Powdered Sugar - yummy!
• These taste great while they're warm! (and may leave a little butter on your fingers).

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 ̊ F. Lightly coat a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray.
• Combine the sugar, honey, 3 tablespoons water, the vanilla and 1⁄2 teaspoon salt in a large heavy-bottomed pot. Cook over medium heat, stirring with a wooden spoon, until the sugar dissolves. Add the peanuts and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture begins simmering, about 1 minute. Continue cooking, stirring constantly, until the sugar mixture dries out and clings to the nuts, 2 to 4 more minutes. Pour onto the prepared baking sheet and spread in an even layer.
• Bake the nuts until the sugar coating begins melting, about 10 minutes. Stir, then continue baking until the nuts are golden brown and glazed in spots, 2 to 4 more minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and stir the nuts to distribute the caramel. Let cool on the baking sheet. Store, covered, at room temperature for up to 1 week.
