Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Sweet and Crunchy Spanish Peanuts.
Step 1
Start by lining a baking sheet with a plain paper bag or parchment paper. This will be your cooling station for the peanuts later on. Next, grab a large pot and combine the raw Spanish peanuts, white sugar, and water. Using a wooden spoon, mix everything together until well combined. Now, place the pot over medium-low heat and keep stirring constantly. This is where the magic happens! As the mixture heats up, the water will begin to evaporate, and the sugar will start to coat the peanuts. Be patient and keep stirring for about 20 to 30 minutes, or until the liquid has evaporated and the peanuts are beautifully coated in a sugary glaze. Once you reach that perfect coating, carefully pour the peanuts onto your prepared baking sheet. Spread them out a bit to ensure they cool evenly. Let them cool completely, and then enjoy your sweet and crunchy Spanish peanuts! These make for a delightful snack or a fun addition to any party.
