Making burnt walnuts yourself | TheFruitAndFlowerBasket TV
Time
Preparation time: 15 min.
At Christmas time markets often produce branded nuts of various kinds. Some often taste good to me, those with chilli are not my case. They all have one thing in common: they are expensive! So I went in search of a good recipe and once again found something.
ingredients
- 200 g of walnuts
- 10 tablespoons cane sugar / brown sugar or granulated sugar
- 150 ml of water
- Cinnamon to taste
preparation
- The sugar is slowly caramelized in a pan. Make sure it does not get too dark or burn. When it starts to melt, it's time to stop by the oven and not be distracted by other things.
- As soon as it has the desired color and smell, the lukewarm water and cinnamon come to your liking. These ingredients are now allowed to boil together.
- When the sugar has dissolved, the walnuts are added.
- While stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, let the liquid be reduced until the sugar dissolves from the pan.
- Quickly you then give the roasted nuts loosely on a baking sheet lined with baking paper and let it cool down there. The important thing is to spread them loosely so that they do not stick together to a lump.
- When they are cool, you can already snack on them. But also filled in screw jars they are a very nice gift to say "thank you" to dear people. The homemade gifts are sometimes the most beautiful I think.

The walnuts can be replaced with other nuts such as hazelnuts, almonds, pecans, Brazil nuts, peanuts, etc. Or you opt for a colorful mix of them. Instead of water you can also try rum, Amaretto, Cointreau, etc. in proportion to 50/50 with water. These can also change the taste. By adding suitable back or. Food color or marzipan color can influence the look great.
If you do not like cinnamon, you can take clove, ginger or cardamom powder or leave it out. (True to my motto: "cooking must remain something creative and should not be carried out quite stubbornly.")
Especially with walnuts, it is important not to roast too long, because otherwise they taste bitter despite the high sugar content. Hazelnuts are not that sensitive.
Have fun cooking, snacking and maybe giving away!
