Contrary to what some in the West might think, a peanut burger is not a hamburger made out of peanuts. Rather, it is a popular West African snack that is loved by kids and adults alike. Made by coating peanuts (also called groundnuts) and then frying them, this snack is easy, inexpensive and delicious.

It is rich in nutrients and have a number of health benefits, including being high in protein, fiber, and healthy fats just like groundnuts. They are also a good source of vitamins and minerals, such as niacin, folate, and vitamin E.

It is a sweet healthy snack that can be preserved for up to six months and more if well stored.
