Author Paula Bendfeldt-Diaz

Ingredients

  • 2 cups mixed nuts
  • 1/4 cup  maple syrup 
  • 1/2 teaspoon rosemary
  • 1 tablespoon dried chipotle
  • 2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Farenheit.
  2. In a bowl combine maple syrup, orange juice and spices.
  3. Add nuts and mix until well coated.
  4. Place the nuts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and spread them evenly .
  5. Roast for 15-20 minutes stirring at least twice with a spatula.
  6. Sprinkle salt and let stand until cool.
  7. Separate nuts that might have stuck together.
  8. Place in mason jars.

The combination of the sweetness caramelized maple paired with the slight smoky heat of the chipotle gives these roasted nuts a delicious taste that is addictive and the best part is that they are so easy to make.

When I make them I make a big batch and add them to saladas and other dishes or just eat them as a snack.
