Steps:
- Preheat oven to 300°F.
- Place peanuts into a large bowl.
- Pour maple syrup and allspice into a small saucepan and place over medium-high heat.
- Bring to a simmer and turn off heat and let cool slightly.
- Pour warm maple syrup mixture over peanuts in the bowl and stir with a wooden spoon to coat peanuts thoroughly.
- With a slotted spoon scoop peanuts from bowl and place into sieve and partially drain over the bowl while transferring peanuts onto a parchment lined baking sheet.
- Repeat process until the baking sheet is full of nuts.
- Place any extra nuts on a second baking sheet.
- Place baking sheet (s) in the oven and roast for 25-30 minutes or until mixture has darkened in colour.
- Be careful to watch that the nuts don't burn- the maple syrup will caramelize and burn easily, so it must be checked frequently.
- Pull the nuts from the oven and transfer onto a single layer of parchment on a counter and let cool.
- With a metal spatula, loosen the nuts from the paper and store in a fun bowl for eating right way or in an airtight container if making in advance.
Tips:
- For the best results, use fresh peanuts. Unsalted peanuts are ideal, as salted peanuts can make the nuts too salty.
- If you don't have a baking sheet, you can use a large skillet or Dutch oven.
- To make sure the nuts are evenly coated, stir them frequently while they are baking.
- Once the nuts are done baking, let them cool completely before storing them. This will help them to stay crispy.
- Store the nuts in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. They will keep for up to 2 weeks.
