PEANUT BRITTLE
A picture of salty-sweet perfection, brittle is surprisingly easy to make. Serve it alongside coffee or tea for dessert, and save any leftovers for snacking. Peanuts make a classic brittle, but you can substitute cashews or almonds instead.

FLUFFY PEANUT BRITTLE
This peanut brittle is very light and fluffy. It is important to coat cookie sheets with butter and put in the freezer to get them really cold before you need to pour the brittle. After you pour the candy you should put the pans in the fridge or outside if it is cold, so the brittle will set up quickly and stay fluffy. You could also use another nut if you are allergic to peanuts. This brittle won't break your teeth!

Steps:
- Line a baking tray with baking parchment. Melt the sugar in a medium frying pan over a medium heat for 4-5 mins until caramelised - it should be a dark amber colour. Don't stir, as this causes the sugar to crystallise - instead, tilt the pan slowly so the sugar melts evenly.
- Add the peanuts, stir with a wooden spoon, then quickly and carefully tip onto the prepared tray. Immediately sprinkle over the sea salt flakes and leave to cool until set. Will keep for several weeks in an airtight container.

While "brittle" is the term for any combination of sugar and water that's heated to the hard crack stage and cooled, it's the addition of salty peanuts that makes this homemade peanut brittle recipe so addictively delicious.
