This is really insightful. Thank you for this. Realised why the almond praline I'm making needs oil, however some days it just splits as well. 🥲 Getting there.

If it’s looking split it probably just needs blending a bit more, the oil will always rise to the top after a few days naturally but the praline shouldn’t really “split” as there’s no water in there to fight with the oil 😊

Oh that's fair. Thanks.

I think the processor ended up overheating and melting the caramel. So the oil just wouldn't blend in. 😭 On to a new batch, fingers crossed..

It’s so annoying when that happens! I sometimes have to give my blender a break halfway through to stop it overheating. If you haven’t thrown away the last batch, it will still work if you re-blend it.

Thank you for sharing this - really informative and has got me excited to try making my own praline paste when I get home from this holiday!

I'm from the southern US and was so confused at the end of this post - a quick search revealed the difference between "praline" in Europe and my home region!
