Total Time6 mins

Servings: 4 people

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon butter salted or unsalted
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup granulated erythritol or stevia blend I used the Pyure brand (32 g). I do not recommend a brown sugar blend, as others have had issues with it not melting. A granulated white sweetener blend works best.
• 1 cup raw nut of your choice I used almonds (128 g)

Instructions

• To a nonstick pan over medium heat, add butter until melted. Add in vanilla extract and sweetener and stir to combine. The mixture may become clumpy, that is totally fine.
• Add in raw nuts and stir until well-coated.
• After a few minutes of stirring, the sweetener should become liquid. Continue stirring for a few minutes, until the liquid begins to caramelize.
• Pour mixture onto parchment paper and allow it to cool for several minutes before consuming. Break apart, and enjoy!

Notes

These nuts should store for roughly one week in an air-tight container at room temperature. However, I recommend consuming them within a few days, as that is when they are the freshest.
