Maple Rosemary Roasted Nuts
Description
This recipe involves combining a selection of raw nuts such as almonds, cashews, and pecans with avocado oil, pure maple syrup, dried rosemary, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and sea salt. The nuts are evenly coated and spread in a single layer on a baking sheet. They roast at 350 degrees Fahrenheit first for 10 minutes, then stirred, and roasted again for another 5 to 10 minutes, ensuring even browning and crisping. Cooling on the hot pan helps to set the glaze and maintain crunchiness.
The flavor profile melds the natural richness of nuts with the sweet maple syrup and the aromatic, pine-like flavor of rosemary complemented by warm spices like cinnamon and nutmeg. This makes the nuts suitable for snacking, adding crunch to salads, or incorporating into cheese boards.
The recipe's note explains you can vary the nut mix including hazelnuts and walnuts, adapting the nuts used to personal preference. Nuts store well in an airtight container for up to two weeks, maintaining their crisp texture and roasted flavor.
