Ingredients
-
1 cup Sunbest Natural Roasted Peanuts (unsalted or lightly salted)
-
¾ cup Sunbest Natural Sesame Seeds (toasted)
-
⅓ cup honey or maple syrup
-
2 tbsp coconut sugar (optional, for deeper caramel flavor)
-
1 tbsp coconut oil or butter
-
Pinch of salt
-
½ tsp vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
-
Toast sesame seeds: In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast sesame seeds for 2–3 minutes, stirring constantly until golden and fragrant. Set aside.
-
Heat the syrup: In a small saucepan, combine honey (or maple syrup), coconut sugar (if using), and coconut oil. Heat over medium-low, stirring frequently until the mixture bubbles and thickens slightly—about 3–4 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract and salt.
-
Mix it up: In a mixing bowl, combine toasted sesame seeds and peanuts. Pour the syrup over and mix until everything is evenly coated.
-
Shape the bars: Transfer the mixture to a parchment-lined 8x8-inch pan. Press firmly and evenly using a spatula or the back of a spoon. You want it tightly packed so it holds its shape.
-
Chill: Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to set. Once firm, cut into bars or squares.
-
Store: Keep refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
