Spicy glazed peanuts with chipotle pepper and chili powder for a twist on a sweet snack.
Ingredients:
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 0.5 cup water
  • 2 cups raw peanuts
  • 1.5 teaspoons chipotle chile powder
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon chili powder
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
  • Combine sugar and water in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring until sugar dissolves completely. Mix in peanuts, chipotle chile powder, kosher salt, chili powder, and garlic powder.
  • Boil the mixture until the liquid evaporates and a syrup coats the nuts, for about 15 minutes, stirring constantly. Spread the mixture onto the baking sheet. Use forks to separate any clumped peanuts and ensure an even layer.
  • Place in preheated oven and stir every 5 minutes until peanuts are glazed, about 20 minutes. Allow peanuts to cool completely before breaking into small pieces.
