Saffron Brittle

I love saffron, especially in candy.  This is a easy recipe for the classic brittle with thin almond flakes which really makes this sweet and crunchy brittle irresistible.

1. 75 gram vegan butter/margarine
2. 1 ½ dl oat cream or non-dairy cream

5. 4,5 dl sugar
6. 1 dl light syrup
7. 3-5 tbsp thin almond flakes

6. Bring to boil then reduce the heat while continuing to stir.
7. Allow to cook on low heat for 10-15 minutes while stirring.
8. Test the mixture by adding a dollop to a glass with cold water. If the sugar batter solidifies stands up in the cold water, the brittle is ready.
