Yield Makes 2 1/2 pounds

Number Of Ingredients 9

About 1/2 cup (1/4 lb.) unsalted butter
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/4 cup light corn syrup
1 3/4 teaspoons cayenne
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 cups (3/4 lb.) hulled salted roasted peanuts
2 1/2 cups (3/4 lb.) salted roasted cashews
1/2 cup (2 1/2 oz.) hulled salted roasted sunflower seed
3 tablespoons sesame seed

Steps:

  • Butter a sheet of foil, about 12 by 17 inches.
  • In a nonstick 5- to 6-quart pan over medium heat, frequently stir 1/2 cup butter, brown sugar, corn syrup, cayenne, and salt until melted and smooth, about 5 minutes.
  • Add peanuts, cashews, sunflower seed, and sesame seed. Turn heat to high and stir until mixture is very thick and nuts begin to brown, 4 to 6 minutes.
  • Immediately pour mixture onto buttered foil, spreading as thinly as possible with back of a spoon. Cool until mixture is lukewarm, about 15 minutes.
  • With your hands, release brittle from foil, then pull or break it into bite-size pieces. When cool, immediately store airtight (otherwise, the coating absorbs moisture and gets sticky).
  • Nutritional analysis per 2 ounces.

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 large egg white
2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
2 Tbsp. honey
1 Tbsp. Aleppo-style pepper (optional)
2 tsp. kosher salt
1 cup sunflower seeds
1/2 cup chia seeds

Steps:

  • Whisk egg white, oil, honey, pepper (if using), salt, and 1 Tbsp. water in a medium bowl to combine. Add sunflower seeds, chia seeds, flaxseeds, and sesame seeds and stir to coat. Let sit until liquid is absorbed, about 30 minutes.
