Simple Sesame Crunch Recipe

Simple Sesame Crunch Recipe


 

This delicious recipe is a cross between peanut brittle and sesame snaps. I either make it purely with sesame seeds or half sesame seeds & half coconut. Either way it's really tasty.

Sesame Crunch

Ingredients

Ingredient Quantity
Granulated Sugar 2 cups
Sesame Seeds 1 cup or 2 cups if you leave out the coconut
Dessicated Coconut 1 cup
Allowed Margarine 1 tbsp (I use vitalite)

Method

  1. Put sugar and margarine in a pan and place over a low heat. Stir until the marg & sugar is mixed together. It should look a bit like this

  2.  In a dry frying pan, toast the sesame seeds until light golden brown. Add the coconut and keep stirring until the coconut starts to turn golden too. Remove from the heat.

  3. The sugar mix will start to melt and then clump up forming brown sugar lumps. Eventually it will melt into a smooth lumpless liquid.

  4. Tip the Sesame Seeds & coconut into the melted sugar and stir it in quickly. Then tip it out onto Waxed Paper, flatten it with the back of the spoon or a fish slice.
