Yield Makes 1 pound

Number Of Ingredients 6

Vegetable oil
1/2 cup honey
1 cup sugar
1 cup hulled sesame seeds, toasted
1/2 cup whole, unblanched almonds, toasted
1/2 cup sunflower seeds

Steps:

  • Lightly grease a 12-by-9-inch pan, and set aside. Place the honey and sugar in a medium saucepan set over medium heat, and cook, stirring, until the sugar has dissolved. Bring mixture to a boil, and let boil until it reaches 320 degrees, about 6 minutes.
  • Remove from heat, add the sesame seeds, almonds, and sunflower seeds, and stir to combine. Pour the mixture onto the prepared pan, and spread out using a greased spatula. Place pan on a wire rack to cool. When brittle is cooled but not hard, ease it out of pan. Place brittle on a wire rack to cool completely. Break the brittle into serving-size pieces.
