Spicy peanuts are very popular. Many people love to buy store roasted peanuts but they are pricier overall and mostly fried. Baked peanuts is an easy recipe to make if you want to avoid fried version. You can always make them in an air fryer oven. I always find my air fryer more convenient than a traditional oven to make snacks. Once you start making them air fried roasted peanuts will definitely be in your pantry forever.

I love peanuts the most, just like my dad. My munchkin loves his homemade peanut butter ice cream. Peanut praline or groundnut chikki as we call it in India is perfect for those with a sweet tooth like me.I always keep a box of homemade bliss balls in my bag. They are wonderful to snack on when I am on the way back from playtime. Learn to make your batch of air fryer peanuts here. Add a new spice each time and enjoy that crunch with a punch!
