Ingredients

  • 1 cup maltitol crystals sweetener
  • 8 sticks sweet cream butter
  • 1 1/2 cups chopped pecan nuts

Directions

  • Melt the butter in a large, non-stick fry pan.
  • Add the Maltitol sweetener and heat on medium, stirring until it is blended and golden.
  • The mixture will separate and then blend together again. Give it time for the color to darken, but don’t over cook.
  • Remove pan from heat and sprinkle nuts on the top.
  • Allow to cool. Cover and let set up. If you are in a hurry, hasten the cooling by setting the pan in a larger pan of ice.
  • Cover and let set up. When the brittle is cooled, break it into pieces.
  • Variations: add 1/4 cup unsweetened coconut. If you use walnuts instead of pecans you can deduct all the carbs. 1 cup of peanuts makes it peanut brittle.
  • Note: based on a recipe from Low-Carb Sweets.com
