I love that this recipe makes a small amount. It's enough to add chopped, better tasting, nuts to a pumpkin or banana bread for instance. Double or triple the amount using full halves to place on guest trays or in bowl's. Easy and quick to make.

Time 10m

Yield 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 tablespoon butter
1 cup walnuts (whole or coarsely chopped depending on planed use)
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon boiled cider or 1 tablespoon maple syrup
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 pinch cayenne pepper (optional)

Steps:

  • Place a medium skillet over medium heat.
  • Melt the butter and add the walnuts.
  • Cook, stirring occasionally, until the nuts are barely starting to brown; this can happen quickly, so keep an eye on them.
  • Sprinkle the sugar over the nuts and stir; add the boiled cider or maple syrup and stir again to coat the nuts.
  • Sprinkle with salt and a pinch of cayenne if using.
  • When the nuts are coated, remove from the heat and spread on a baking sheet or piece of parchment to cool.
