∙ 14y agoAs the name of the recipe suggests, peanuts are the main ingredient in peanut brittle. However, you can substitute whichever nut you like in place of the peanuts to make pecan brittle, almond brittle, etc. If you are allergic to nuts, you could substitute seeds like pumpkin, sesame, or sunflower seeds.
