    If you love groundnuts you would loooove Peanut Burger Snack. This is a snack made by coating groundnuts otherwise known as peanuts with flour and other ingredients.
    Oh my! Does deliciousness come any better than this? Peanut Burger is so crunchy, slightly sweet, nutty and so addicting!

    Warning: these little balls of food ecstasy won't last long after you make them. You might start making them every week! I'm not complaining, though.
    Peanut Burger Snack in a bowl
    Peanut Burger is a well-known snack in Nigeria and Ghana. I first fell in love with the commercial brand version in Nigeria. I could never get enough of it.
    It was fast gaining popularity in Cameroon before I left. It is colloquially called "peanuts" there. I could see it in so many stores and snack stands.
    I don't know if that is still the case. Are "Peanuts" still so popular in pays? Please let me know below if you are in Cameroon right now.
    So a while ago I got a couple of requests to do a recipe for this. I was mad at myself for not making this in a long time... over two years! Why Precious, why??? I repent.
    Making Peanut Burger Snack could be time-consuming but it is quite easy and the taste pays for the time. I promise.
    All you need is some raw peanuts. Then you coat the peanuts with some flour, eggs, sugar salt and nutmeg if you like. Viola, peanut burger!

    Ingredients

    • 2 cups of flour (250 grams)
    • 3 eggs
    • ⅓ cup of sugar (66.7 grams)
    • 2 cups of raw groundnuts aka peanuts
    • ½ teaspoon baking powder
    • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg optional
    • A pinch of salt
    • Vegetable oil for frying

    Instructions

    • Put your groundnuts in a bowl and select to take out all the bad ones.
    • Mix together flour, baking powder, nutmeg and salt and set aside.
    • Beat eggs together with sugar in another bowl.
    • Pour a little of the egg mixture over the groundnuts. Shake bowl until mixture coats all the groundnuts.
    • Sprinkle some of the flour mixture over the groundnuts and shake.
    • Repeat 4 and 6 above until groundnuts are completely coated with flour. If some stick together, use your fingers to separate them and keep going.

    Notes

    It is okay to have some flour at the base of your bowl when coating the groundnuts. Make sure you separate the nuts from the flour before frying.

      My dear it is still very popular in Cameroon now. I really want to see the video, it sounds easier here than the way we make them. I developed muscles from shaking to coat the peanut. Hubby likes them alot but I only make them when I have holidays. It demands physical strength and patience

      I can totally relate to developing muscles while shaking. I think that happens because we try to put a thick coat of flour over the groundnuts so we keep shaking and shaking. Putting a thinner coat, just enough to cover the groundnuts works well. Video will be uploaded soon, dear. This technology sef *sigh*

        Use your hand to separate the groundnut and add flour that shake. It requires patience

      Hi Chidozie, did you use your fingers to separate them while rubbing them with the flour? It could be that you poured in too much of the egg mixture at once. Only a little should be poured at a time, then you pour the flour. When the mixture is much, a lot of the groundnuts will marry each other that's stick together.

        Hi McChummy, did you follow the recipe exactly as it is with the right measurements? Since I haven't tasted it I won't be able to tell what went wrong.

        About going commercial with it, I think it is quite profitable though I can't give you precise figures. I'm judging from the increasing number of people who make it for commercial purposes. I think if many people are doing it, that's because they've found it profitable.

        Hope this helps.

        I love crunchy peanut but what I produced was very strong as if I would loose my dentitions.

        I don't know if it is because I added milk.

        Hi Solo, I'm afraid I don't know of any replacement to eggs. However, you could try liquid whole milk and see if that works.
        About the kind of groundnuts, I'm not sure what you mean by brown or white ones. Please watch the video to see the one I used.

          Hi Precious, okay will try with milk. In Kenya we have white (not really white something closer to light brown) and red peanuts (very brown), the colour is in the skin and they are sold separately, i can see a mixture of both in your mixture and will try on both.
          Thanks again and be blessed.

        Hi Elvis, sorry for the late response. It's normal for some of your egg/flour to stick to the bottom of the bowl. When this happens, use a spoon to scoop it so it can coat to the peanuts. Please watch the video to see how I do it.

        Hi Adebayo,
        I'm glad the post is helpful to you. To answer your questions:
        a.) I have never heard of a machine that could be used in making these.
        b.) You should use raw peanuts. The roasted ones may burn when deep-fried
        c.) Just any vegetable oil will do. Personally, I would use canola oil since it is healthier and has no strong smell.

        Hope these answers help.

      hi precious, thanks a lot but I tried making it n it didn't go well.
      I poured my raw groundnut inside boiling water n left it inside for abt 2-3 minutes.
      I removed it from d water n aired it to dry for abt 10min but after frying d peanut, d groundnut ended up still being raw.
      how did DAT happen, did I miss something?
      thanx

        Hi Dessy,
        Did you follow my exact recipe? I never put the groundnut in boiling water. I coat the groundnuts raw and after frying, they are usually thoroughly cooked. Maybe your oil was too hot so your coating got brown without the heat getting to the groundnuts.

        Hi Jannat,
        Yes it's the normal flour used in baking. This recipe uses one quarter kg of flour (which is equal to 2 cups of flour). To get the quantity of ingredients for 1 kg of flour, simply multiply every ingredient in the recipe by 4 (8 cups of flour make 1 kg).
        Hope this helps.

        Hi Kemi, I normally just mix whatever is left of the egg with the flour that sticks to the bottom of the bowl while coating the peanuts. I then cut and fry that as some form of chin chin. Unfortunately, there is always some left over coating in this recipe. So I repurpose it by frying. Hope this helps.

        Hi Kemi,
        So sorry, I must have missed your question. I always store my peanuts in a bottle (a large water bottle that has been washed and dried) and lock it tight. That way, the peanuts remain fresh and crunchy. The nylon bag might not work well because somehow air might get into it. So use a bottle and be sure to lock it tight. Hope this helps.

        Hi, Peace! Yes, raw peanuts are peanuts that haven't been roasted. No need to peel them. You could use roasted peanuts but there's the danger of them getting burnt while frying. So raw peanuts are the best because - they will cook during the frying and turn out crunchy. Hope this helps.

      Hmm,well done.I haven't given it a trial but the video I watch gives 100% of a spicy and crunchy peanut burger. You mixed egg and sugar together that's another 100% the reason for given 100% is that I tasted one peanut burger sometimes and I spit it out because of the sugar in it but seeing this the egg will melt the sugar and everything will be crunchy.Thank you precious.

        8 cups of flour. Multiply every ingredient by 4 to get the quantities for 1kg of flour. Hope this helps.

      Hi precious. Thanks for the recipe. I did mine but I discovered the sugar isn't enough and it didn't coat well.
      Can I try redoing it with the same peanut I used earlier?

      Please I'll really appreciate it if I can get the answer ASAP Thanks

          Thanks. I did another one and it's superb

          Actually, that one that didn't coat well I've already fried it. My question now is can I coat the already fried peanuts again? I don't know if you understand me

        Hi Pascy, you need to let the peanuts fry until golden brown. It could be that you didn't let them fry long enough. Hope this helps.

      Thank you so much maam, in order to archive smooth result, is it advisable to mix the flour like we do while making chinchin and add the groundnut seed inside and fry? How do you think it will come out. Thank you ma

        That won't work as well as this method. It will be hard to get the dough to coat the groundnuts perfectly. Also, it will take a lot of time to coat every single one. Hope this helps.

        Hi Kay, it could be that your oil was to hot so the coating cooked quickly without the groundnut cooking on the inside.
