Sugar-Free Candied Peanuts

These peanuts aren't nearly as candy-like as peanut brittle, but they are in the same family. Cinnamon is optional, but I like it. You can also make them without the syrup and they are still really tasty; they just don't have as thick a coating.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups roasted peanuts
• 1 raw egg white
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 Tbsp cinnamon
• 1/4 cup sugar-free maple syrup (I like Maple Grove best)

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 350 F. Either use a non-stick baking sheet, cover with foil, or use a silicon mat.

Whisk egg white until foamy. Add the rest of the ingredients except for peanuts, and whisk together. Add peanuts and stir to coat. Spread on baking sheet in single layer, and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until mixture is dry and not soggy.

Makes 8 servings of 1/4 cup each.
