Honey roasted peanuts are a delightful snack that strikes the perfect balance between sweet and savoury. Whether you choose to prepare them in the oven or an air fryer, the process is straightforward and yields irresistibly crunchy results.

To begin, simply gather your raw peanuts, a generous drizzle of honey, and a sprinkle of salt. If you’re using the oven, preheat it to 180 degrees Celsius. Toss the peanuts in a bowl with the honey and salt until they’re well-coated. Spread them out evenly on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and roast for about 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure that they brown evenly.

If you opt for the air fryer, adjust the temperature to 160 degrees Celsius. Place the coated peanuts in the air fryer basket in a single layer and cook for approximately 10 to 12 minutes, giving them a shake halfway through to guarantee a golden finish.

As the peanuts cook, the aroma of honey caramelising fills the kitchen, promising a crunchy treat. Once they’re done, allow them to cool completely before indulging. These honey roasted peanuts are perfect as a snack on their own, a topping for salads, or a charming addition to a homemade trail mix. Enjoy knowing that this delightful nibble is both simple to make and utterly delicious!
