For a deeper flavor, toast the almonds lightly before adding them to the skillet.
Use a candy thermometer to ensure the mixture reaches the correct temperature (around 300°F or 149°C for hard-crack stage).

    This recipe is so easy and the brittle turned out perfectly! I added a pinch of sea salt at the end for a salted caramel flavor.

  • Wilfredo Hoeger

    I accidentally burned the sugar the first time, so be sure to watch it carefully and keep stirring constantly! The second batch was amazing.
