Candied Nuts & Santa’s Reindeer

December 15, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 36 Comments

Hi Everyone,

Happy Saturday to you!!  Today I have for you a very addicting recipe!!  This recipe is so good, so easy, and so delicious and is perfect for gifting giving.  How much better can it get!  Well let me show you!!

candied nuts

These are my Mixed Candied Nuts.  Oh my gosh, they are so sweet!  With a slight hint of cinnamon and a touch of salt!  You have everything you want in these nuts.  It’s healthy, full of protein, sweet, salty and crunchy.  I am in pure nut heaven and I can’t stop eating them!!!  Really I can’t keep my hand out of the tupperware I have them stored in!!

candied nuts


Since I am trying, ha ha to be good I used my NuNaturals Presweet Tagatose, but you could also probably use splenda, I am sure that would work too.  That way I won’t have added sugar, but I will include the sugar calories for you.  Let me tell you, I so cheated when making these sweet delectable little treats.  To make, I placed all of my nuts in a skillet, turned the heat on to medium high, added water, sugar, and cinnamon.

candied nuts

I brought the nuts to a boil, stirred occasionally while waiting for the water to evaporate.  Then I kept stirring it so the nuts and sugar wouldn’t burn.  Cooked it until it got thick and syrupy and then poured it on to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to cool.

candied nuts

I used two forks to separate the nuts so they weren’t all stuck together.  However the stuck together pieces are my favorite because there is more sugar stuck to them.  After I separated them I added a pinch of salt for that savory flavor.  The whole process took maybe 20 minutes or so.  I let them cool for about two hours, then it was time for bed, so I broke apart a few more pieces by hand and placed the nuts in a tupperware for safe keeping.

candied nuts

When making these I used the last bits and pieces of nuts that I had from baking last week.  I used 1 cup each of cashews, almonds, pecans and walnuts.  You can use what ever nuts you like, just be sure they are all the same size for even cooking.  The cashews and almonds are my favorite.  The candied nuts make for a wonderful gift to give!  They are also perfect for snacking and topping on salads.  Love them in a nice apple salad!!  Candied Nuts reminds me of the time, back in my early, early 20’s when my boyfriend, Husband now, went to Letchworth Park in NY.  There was an arts and crafts festival and it was snowing and cold!!!  I remember walking around freezing to death, so we got hot apple cider and then the smell hit us, fresh cinnamon nuts being made right there.  Oh we couldn’t resist.  We just had to buy a bag.  That was my first time ever having candied nuts.  They were so good!!  Incredibly good!!!  Ever since then I have been hooked.  This is my first time making them and the taste brought me back to that wonderful time in my life.

A rich, sweet mixture of nuts candied with sugar and flavored with cinnamon and salt.
Serves: 4 cups
Ingredients
  • 1 cup cashews
  • 1 cup almonds
  • 1 cup walnuts
  • 1 cup pecans
  • ½ cup water
  • 2 cups sugar (I used NuNaturals PreSweet Tagatose)
  • 1 tbsp. cinnamon, ground
  • 2 dashes salt (optional)
Instructions
  1. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper; set a side.
  2. In a large skillet add all your ingredients (but the salt). Turn the heat up to medium - high. Stir occasionally until water is evaporated, about 7 minutes. Then keep stirring until sugar gets thick and brown, about 5 minutes longer. If you smell the nuts, they are done, you don't want to burn them.
  3. Quickly pour nuts onto prepared baking sheets and with two forks, pull the nuts apart the best you can to separate them. Sprinkle with just a pinch of salt.
  4. Let them sit until completely cooled. Break apart any nuts stuck together
  5. Store in an airtight container.

candied nuts

Oh, I have to tell you, my Husband called me a jerk last night!! Yah, can you believe it?  He asked are you making granola, I said nope.  I said here have some nuts, he said no, I said come on, try them, fine he said.  I said are they good? He said yah!  Then he went to watch tv, and about 30 seconds later he was back in the kitchen pulling the nuts off of the baking sheet, then he said you’re a jerk!!!  I said there addicting aren’t they, yes!!  Needless to say, Hubby likes them! I don’t mind being called a jerk when it’s meant in a good way!  lol

Now I must package the nuts up because I am not kidding you, I can’t stop eating them!!!  I have to stop.  I probably consumed my calories for the day in nuts!  They are so filling, yet I can’t stop!!  I need to go to nuts anonymous!  All week it has been nuts!!!  I think I’m nuts!!  I didn’t make peanut butter this week for the reason I am trying to stay away, so what do I do?  Make PB&J Thumbprint Cookies then candied nuts!  Yah I do have a nut problem!!

Have a great weekend!  Stay warm and make some toasty nuts!  Not only do they taste good, the smell of nuts and cinnamon in the air is so comforting and relaxing!  It’s a smell that will bring people together! Ok, maybe that was a little too much, I am totally out of control!  Going to package the nuts up now!

Again, have  a great weekend!

Toodles,

Jen

P.S.  I totally forgot to share this with you.  My Friend Janet sent me this link to watch Santa feed the reindeer.  It’s a live cam.  She said her granddaughter watches it,waiting for Santa to feed then reindeer and then he waves to the camera.  Her granddaughter asked, can Santa see me, she said yes, and then she begged to turn it off.  he he   Here’s the link!  http://reindeercam.com/  It’s funny!  Going to watch Santa feed the reindeer int he morning so I can see him wave.  I’m so dorky!

    I’ve also had some experience making candied nuts (walnuts, in this case) when I made a honey walnut shrimp recipe. I had an issue with the nuts sticking together too but just broke them up with a knife. Any suggestions on how to avoid the problem?

      I used a fork to separate them as soon as I poured them onto my baking sheet. About an hour later, I pulled them apart a little more. When I placed them in the tupperware I broke apart any remaining pieces that were stuck together. But the stuck together ones are my favorite.

    Wondering if anyone has tried making these with Splenda? Being in Canada I haven’t been able to find NuNaturals PreSweet Tagatose. If someone has tried it with splenda I would be grateful to hear how it went.

    The first time I made these, I did use Splenda and they were delicious. Today, I made them again using Tagatose. I made half a recipe but had way too much syrup, even though I halved everything. They’re sticky but I’m hoping that they’ll harden in a few hours. Any idea what went wrong? I cooked them 7 minutes and the liquid was bubbly and getting thick. I was afraid to cook them longer since they burn easily.

      Hi Beth, they are sticky, be sure to pull the nuts a part with a fork and let them harden up for a couple of hours. I found them pretty sticky at first but once cooled and harden they turned great. Let mw know how it goes. I’m typing from my blacberry, so forgive the spelling, I can barly see my screen.

        Thank you for getting back to me, Jennifer. I don’t think they’re going to harden. I believe my mistake was in not letting them cook long enough. The first batch hardly had any liquid left in it and this one had pretty much. I’m going to stick with it, though, and try it again when I buy more nuts.
        Thank you for your wonderful blog and all the amazing recipes you develop for us.

Happy Thursday! I am a day ahead of myself this w Happy Thursday!  I am a day ahead of myself this week. I thought yesterday was Thursday and I was excited because I thought today was Friday. I knew what day of the week it was, but my brain didn’t get it. Does that ever happen to you?
🐶
I’m sharing with you my new dog bone container that I got from @outshine_co. Oh my gosh Sampson loves it! Mom, move out of the way, I’m taking over!!
🐶
Hi all! This is Sammy here! I just have to tell you my Mom now has no excuse not to have bones in the house anymore. This beautiful container hold 5 boxes of my favorite Trader Joe’s bones. My Mom also needs to know that carrots, celery or a piece of lettuce doesn’t cut it! Bones is what I must have!
🐶
The container is made of a nice heavy coated carbon steel and holds 12lbs or 54 cups of dog food and bones. 🤩Yes thank you! That is what I’m taking about. The only thing is, the lid is so well fitted and airtight that I can’t get my paws in it. What’s up with that? Not fair! I need access to bones at all times.
🐶
My Mom loves the container too because it looks pretty on her counter and even comes with a sticker that she can write my name on. I absolutely love this container! Thank you Outshine Co. for sending this to me, I mean my Mom.
🐶
Thank your for letting me take over! I miss and love you guys!  Love Sampson!

Happy Wednesday! Half way through the week. I’m Happy Wednesday!  Half way through the week. I’m sharing with you, possibly my last look of my living room in it’s winter decor. I am so ready to add some color.
🪴
Depending on what is going on this weekend, I hoping to go to Homegoods for maybe a new blanket and some pillows. The only thing what color? I’m almost gravitating towards pink?
🪴
Though, yellow may look nice with the green plants. However, I do have so many pillows. Maybe I should look for pillow covers? Less storage. Pillows take up so much room. Oh the decisions.
🪴
I’ve seen some of you share pillow covers from Hobby Lobby. I’ve never seen them at my store, but I’ll do a search when I’m there? I guess that means I’m hitting up Hobby Lobby too. 😂
🪴
Instead of my daily question, I just want to wish and hope everyone is safe with this crazy weather.

🐰
Now that Valentines is over, it’s officially time for spring, at least in my mind. The weather may say otherwise, but I’ve been craving spring colors in my home. I went pretty neutral in my living room for winter, but I think I’m going to add some pastels. Now what color to add?
🐰
Last year if you followed me, I spent months trying to decide on what color to use. Ugh, I think I’m in the same boat again this year. I like yellows because it’s a happy color, but I also like pinks and blues. Oh the decisions.
🐰
I haven’t seem to much inspiration in the stores, though Target seems to have yellows and corals, plus a lot of neutrals. I’m seeing a lot of boho and woods. I do like woods with greenery.
🐰
What color doing you like to use in your home for Spring?

Happy Friday! We did it! Yesterday was a little bi Happy Friday! We did it! Yesterday was a little bit of rough day in my house. Woke up to see my sweet Sampson wasn’t feeling well.  He was just laying around, didn’t get up to greet me, and the biggest sign was he didn’t ask for a bone. You know how he’s obsessed with bones.
🐶
Around 9am he perked up and asked for a bone and wanted to go outside to snoop around. He seems to be better, but is still kind of laying around. I just hope he will be okay. He’s 11, and I get so worried. He’s my child.
🐶
I’m sharing with you my pretty tulips from Trader Joe’s. They have such a great selection of tulips in array of colors. Though I didn’t see any roses, which is strange. We do not have any plans for the weekend, that I know of, but we have the tendency to wing it.  I’ll keep you posted. Hope you have a wonderful Valentines weekend!

Hello Friday’s Eve! Today after work I’ll most Hello Friday’s Eve! Today after work I’ll most likely be heading to Trader Joe’s and I have to get my husband a Valentines gift. I would get him his favorite, chocolate, but he bought himself a ton of chocolate last weekend, so I’ll have to think of something else. Maybe he’ll like flowers from Trader Joe’s? Lol
🌸
Speaking of flowers, check out my new, gorgeous marble and wood cutting board that I got from my friend Brantley from @thesassyoak. I love the engraved flowers in it. It is so pretty.
🌸
The cutting board is her newest item at her Etsy shop. She engraves different items, like your name, but for me it is flowers. I’ll always keep the cutting board displayed. I think it is far to pretty to use. I’m afraid someone would scratch it.
🌸
Do you use cutting boards or just use them as display?

If you have any suggestions on where to get some, let me know.
❤️
I wasn’t going to, but I decided to do a small Valentines table setting. I couldn’t resist the small white plates with the little red heart in the middle that I got from @williamssonoma. It was the first thing I bought after my no home decor buying for 30 days.
❤️
I love the simplicity of the table. It’s a small space, so I do not like to go to overboard on the decor. I added a little gift of candy hearts to bring together the reds and of course to eat.
❤️
Do you have any special plans for Valentines Day?

Hello everyone! Happy Tuesday! This weekend I clea Hello everyone! Happy Tuesday! This weekend I cleaned my kitchen sink area. It was filling up with daffodils and tulips and my husband said he feels like he’s in a greenhouse. I said they are bulbs, they won’t be there forever. Well they did poop out so I cleaned up my area to make more room for new plants.
🤣
You know when you take a photo and you realize something is in the wrong spot, so you fix it and take a photo again? Or maybe you see a crumb, a dog hair tumbleweed and you have to clean up and take a photo again. We’ll here’s my story.
😂
I took a photo of the kitchen sink area and I saw in the photo a smear mark on the dishwasher. So I cleaned the dishwasher. Then I took a photo again and I saw that smear mark again. So I scrubbed the dishwasher and ended up up cleaning all of my cabinets.
😂
I took the photo again and I saw that smear looking mark in my photo. What the heck? I examined the dishwasher and I’m thinking it’s so clean and smooth. I don’t get what that smear mark is. It was driving me crazy!!
🤣
Then it hit me. It was the reflection of the dog food dish in the dishwasher. Sigh.... All that scrubbing and I could have just moved the bowl. Well now I have a clean dishwasher and cabinets.
🤦‍♀️
Has this ever happened to you?

Hello Monday! We meet again!! And hello everyone! Hello Monday! We meet again!! And hello everyone! Hope you had a nice weekend. I took  advantage of the sunshine and 64 degree weather we had. I did some therapeutic yard work and I planted Pansies, Stock and Ranunculus in the garden. It felt so nice to be outside and to see flowers.

This weekend I finally repotted my Coffee Plant and Dracaena plant. They had roots growing out of the pot. I have no idea how the Dracaena (plant on right) plant survived. The roots were so dry and it was in about a 3” container.  I looked up the plant and it can grow to 10’. Not the care I gave mine. That little plant is about a year old.
🌸
If your looking for a low light, easy to care for plant that takes neglect, get a Dracaena. I’m proof that it can take neglect.
🌸
Basic repotting plant tips
1. Get a pot about 2-4” larger in diameter then the pot your current plant is in. Make sure it has a drainage hole at the bottom.
2. Use indoor potting soil, preferably organic.
3. Carefully take plant out of current pot, check if the roots are root bound, if so, try to untangle a little bit. Just be gentle.
4. Place plant in new pot with fresh indoor potting soil
5. Give a good watering

Did you watch the Super Bowl? I wasn’t a fan of the game, but I enjoyed some of the commercials. The Cheetos one with Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunas made me laugh. I didn’t care for the Doritos commercial with my man Matthew McConaughey.
🌸
Were there any commercials you liked?

It’s finally Friday! Woohoo! I always say to my It’s finally Friday!  Woohoo! I always say to myself, I’m going to sleep in, I never do. I get so excited of all the things I want to do, that I can’t sleep. This weekend I’m hoping to hit the garden store. I really want to plant some Iceland Poppies.

Since Spring is in my head, I created this cute Spring tiered tray. I got all of the gorgeous handcrafted pieces from my friend Brantley @thesassyoak. The workmanship is amazing. They are just happy, cheery pieces.
🌷
The love birds sign is my favorite. It reminds me of my two Blue Jays that frequent my yard. They are my favorite birds next to Woody of course.
🐦
How cute is that sweet little “BLOOM” banner. Eeeee, It makes me want to plant flowers so bad. Crossing fingers that I get too. You have no idea how I just love Spring!
🌷
To get these fabulous pieces and many more, be sure to check out The Sassy Oak. She has a beautiful Etsy shop.
