Maple Glazed Walnuts

After picking up some delicious maple candied pecans at the farmer's market I had an urge to try making maple glazed walnuts since we always have walnuts in the house.

Nuts aren't the prettiest thing we eat so they don't exactly make for a nice photo.
This could not have been any easier to whip up!

Simple preheat a skillet over medium-high. 

Then add 2 cups of walnuts halves.
1/3 cup of quality maple syrup.
Also 1/8 teaspoon of salt. Then cook stirring frequently until the syrup is caramelized and the nuts are toasted. This only takes about 3 minutes!
The instructions I followed say to let cool. However eating them hot right out of the pan is amazing. I am thinking a great treat to satisfy a sweet craving on a cold winter's night. So I will be making this again!

A healthy snack but one needs to be careful considering how high in calories these nuts are.

Let me know if you give these a try!

Thank you for stopping by.  ~Val
