Peanut Brittle

This is pretty moreish stuff! The addition of bicarbonate of soda (baking soda) at the end of cooking makes the brittle not quite so hard and therefore easier on your teeth – but it’s still best to try and spread it as thin as you can once it’s cooked.

Peanut brittle is great as a gift as well as delicious as a garnish for a cake or dessert. Blitz it up for an ice cream inclusion or even dip pieces in chocolate.
