1. |
Melt the butter in a large, non-stick fry pan. |
2. |
Add the Maltitol sweetener and heat on medium, stirring until it is blended and golden. |
3. |
The mixture will separate and then blend together again. Give it time for the color to darken, but don’t over cook. |
4. |
Remove pan from heat and sprinkle nuts on the top. |
5. |
Allow to cool. Cover and let set up. If you are in a hurry, hasten the cooling by setting the pan in a larger pan of ice. |
6. |
Cover and let set up. When the brittle is cooled, break it into pieces. |
7. |
Variations: add 1/4 cup unsweetened coconut. If you use walnuts instead of pecans you can deduct all the carbs. 1 cup of peanuts makes it peanut brittle. |
