This recipe is super easy and produces a seriously addictive snack. I first made these for a potluck, and they disappeared faster than you can say 'five-spice'. Seriously!
The five-spice powder lends a warm, complex flavor to the peanuts that elevates them beyond your typical salty snack. It's a magical blend of star anise, cloves, Sichuan peppercorns, cinnamon, and fennel seeds, creating a taste that's both savory and subtly sweet. It's amazing!
Roasting brings out the natural nuttiness of the peanuts, resulting in a crunchy, flavorful treat that's perfect for satisfying those afternoon cravings or adding a delightful crunch to your favorite dishes. So simple, yet so satisfying!

🍽 Ingredients
📖 Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This is crucial for even roasting!
- Spread 2 cups of raw peanuts in a single layer on a baking sheet. Don't overcrowd the pan! This ensures even cooking and prevents steaming.
- In a small bowl, combine 1 teaspoon of five-spice powder and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Mix thoroughly.
- Sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over the peanuts on the baking sheet. Gently toss to coat all the peanuts completely. Make sure there's no clumping of spices.
- Roast for 12-15 minutes, or until the peanuts are fragrant and golden brown, stirring halfway through. Keep a close eye on them to prevent burning. My friend burnt hers, don't be like her!
- Once roasted, remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the peanuts cool completely on a wire rack or parchment paper. This allows them to crisp up further and prevents them from becoming soggy.
- Once cool, store your delicious, aromatic peanuts in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, or in the freezer for longer storage. Enjoy!
📝 Notes
- For extra flavor, you can add a touch of brown sugar or honey before roasting.
- Make sure to adjust cooking time depending on your oven and preferred level of crispiness. Don't overcook or they might burn! Learned that the hard way...
