Ballpark At Home - Honey-Roasted Peanuts

Image From foodnetwork.com
Cooking spray
3/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoons honey
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Kosher salt
2 cups unsalted raw peanuts
Preheat the oven to 400 ĚŠ F. Lightly coat a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray.
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. Add the peanuts and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture begins simmering, about 1 minute. Continue cooking, stirring constantly, until the sugar mixture dries out and clings to the nuts, 2 to 4 more minutes. Pour onto the prepared baking sheet and spread in an even layer.
Bake the nuts until the sugar coating begins melting, about 10 minutes. Stir, then continue baking until the nuts are golden brown and glazed in spots, 2 to 4 more minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and stir the nuts to distribute the caramel. Let cool on the baking sheet. Store, covered, at room temperature for up to 1 week.
