Liv Life Sugared Walnuts
Toasted
to perfection with a sweet crunch... it won't be hard to get in your
6-7 walnuts a day with these guys around! Perfect tossed onto a salad
or simply eaten out of hand. Enjoy!
1 cup California Walnut halves
1 1/2 Tbs pure maple syrup
1/2 Tbs coconut oil
1/2 - 1 Tbs granulated sugar
Preheat oven to 350ยบ.
Place
a small saucepan on the stove over low heat. Add the coconut oil and
maple syrup into the pan. Stir until very warm, the syrup does not need
to simmer.
Place
the nuts into a bowl and pour the syrup over. Toss to coat the nuts.
Sprinkle the sugar over the nuts and toss again. I prefer mine with
about 1/2 Tbs, but Liv has decided that a generous 1 Tbs is more
appropriate. (Add according to your sweet tooth)
Pour nuts onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper into a single layer. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the nuts are golden and dry. Stir nuts after about 5 minutes and rotate the pan. Keep a close eye on the nuts at about the 10 minute point... they can go from not done to over done in a flash!
Liv Life Note: If desired, sprinkle nuts with about 1/2 tsp of cinnamon for Cinnamon Sugared Walnuts
