Best 6 Old Fashion Coconut Flake Brittle Recipes

COCONUT BRITTLE

Steps:

• Spread coconut evenly over a buttered baking sheet.
• In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine sugar and corn syrup. Microwave on high 3 minutes. Stir in nuts and microwave 4 minutes more. Stir in butter and vanilla and return to microwave for 1 minute. Stir in soda until light and slightly foamy. Pour over coconut in pan. Let cool until firm, 1 hour. Break into pieces.

CHILI CRISP WITH OATS

Steps:

• To make the chili crisp, place the shallots, garlic, ginger, cinnamon stick, oats, coconut flakes, sesame seeds, chile flakes and oils in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a gentle simmer, swirling the pan every now and then, then reduce the heat to medium-low and cook for 20-25 minutes until everything is crispy.
• Strain the oil through a sieve over a bowl and leave the oat mixture to cool in the sieve-this will allow it to crisp up further. Set the oil aside. Once the crispy oat mixture is completely cool, stir it back into the oil and season with the sea salt. Leave the cinnamon stick in the oil, as it will continue to flavor it. Store the chili crisp in a sterilized jar. It will keep well for several months.

OLD FASHIONED CORNFLAKE CANDY RECIPE - (3.9/5)

Steps:

• In a medium size saucepan, heat the corn syrup and sugar, on medium heat, until the sugar dissolves. Add peanut butter and stir until smooth. Gradually add corn flakes, 1 cup at a time, while mixing. Remove from heat, then spoon mixture onto wax paper, or aluminum foil, and let cool completely. **The official recipe calls for 6 cups of corn flakes, but you can use anywhere from 4-6 cups depending on how much you'd like to make and how crunchy or "gooey" you'd like your candy {use more cornflakes for more crunch}. For these pictures, we only used 4 cups of corn flakes, so keep that in mind when making yours.

PEANUT BRITTLE

Steps:

• Lay out several sheets of foil to spoon the hot peanut brittle onto.
• In a large skillet mix the sugar, syrup, and water together. Cook at a medium-high heat, stirring regularly. Heat until the mixture has a hard ball consistency. Heat to 250 to 265 degrees F (121 to 129 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a rigid ball. If you don't own a candy thermometer, occasionally hold spoon above mixture, allowing it to drip off spoon. When mixture is at hard ball stage, it will 'hair' off the spoon when falling, looking like a clear spider web.
• Once mixture is at hard ball consistency, add raw peanuts. (They will pop a little.) When mixture starts to turn a light clear-brown, as if it's starting to burn, remove from stove. Add soda and stir. Mixture will foam up.
• Spoon out bite-size pieces onto unbuttered foil, stirring constantly between each couple of pieces. Mixture can also be poured onto unbuttered foil as one big piece and broken into smaller pieces once cooled.
