Almond brittle
It snaps like praline, but it's just almonds, sugar and a drizzle of coconut oil.
Ingredients
- ½ cup sliced almonds, or chopped (45 g / 1½ oz)
- 1½ tbsp sugar (18 g / ¾ oz) — no added sugar: 2 tbsp erythritol (26 g)
- 1 tsp coconut oil (5 g)
In the no-added-sugar version, eating too much erythritol or xylitol can have a laxative effect.
Method
- In a nonstick skillet, quickly toast the almonds over low heat.
- Add the sugar and coconut oil.
The full method (6 steps), Rico's tip, the Thermomix® or similar version, the variations and storage are in the ebook “Breads, Cakes & Basics”. The English edition is coming soon.
