Honey roasted walnuts

Honey roasted walnuts provide a sweet and mildly spicy snack by coating walnuts in honey and a sugar mixture flavored with chili powder and salt, then baking them until caramelized. The result is a crunchy nut with a glossy, sticky coating that has both sweet and spicy notes, making them a flavorful addition to salads, desserts, or for eating on their own.
