Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and then melt butter, honey, and salt in a saucepan. Step 2: Add peanuts and stir to combine. Step 3: Roast the butter, honey-coated peanuts. Step 4: Meanwhile, mix sugar, chili powder, and garlic powder. Step 5: Once the peanuts are well roasted, add the sugar mixture, and done!
These delicious honey roasted peanuts make decadent peanut butter with a sweet flavor already added. Simply use a high-speed blender or food processor to blend the peanuts into butter. The result will have texture because of the peanuts' skins, but also a lot of flavor and character.
Combine the sugar, honey, 3 tablespoons water, the vanilla and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large heavy-bottomed pot. Cook over medium heat, stirring with a wooden spoon, until the sugar dissolves completely. Add the peanuts and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture begins simmering, about 1 minute.
Place the butter, honey, vanilla, cinnamon, and 1 teaspoon salt in a large microwave-safe bowl. Microwave the mixture until the butter is melted, about 45 seconds, stirring halfway through. Once melted, stir until the liquid is smooth. Add the peanuts to the honey mixture and stir until they're all evenly coated.
