This is a great recipe, a perfect Autumnal snack (but also full of goodness!). Try experimenting with different combinations of nuts and dried fruits…
Ingredients
- 150 grams Almonds
- 150 grams Cashews
- 100 grams Pumpkin or Sunflower Seeds
- 100 grams dried Cranberries or Raisins or Goji Berries (or a mixture!)
- 150 grams Granulated Sugar
- 75 grams DrBeekeeper Honey
- 250 ml Water
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Butter
Method
Heat the sugar, honey, water and salt in a large heavy-based pan over a medium heat. Stir lightly every 7 to 10 minutes (but not constantly). The mixture should eventually go hard if dropped in cold water. This can take time so be patient (if you have a thermometer, heat the mixture until it reaches a temperature of 120 °C.
Once you have reached the required temperature / consistency, just add your nuts and fruit mix and pour the combined mixture over a shallow tray which has been lined with lightly greased parchment paper.
Wait for the brittle to cool and then enjoy!
