Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This will prevent the walnuts from sticking to the pan while baking.

  2. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the walnuts, maple syrup, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Stir well until the walnuts are evenly coated with the mixture.

  3. Spread the coated walnuts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure they are not crowded to allow even baking.

  4. Bake the walnuts in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through the baking time. Keep a close eye on them to prevent burning.

  5. Once the walnuts are golden brown and fragrant, remove them from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet. The maple glaze will thicken as the walnuts cool.

  6. Once completely cooled, break apart any walnuts that may have stuck together and transfer them to an airtight container for storage. Enjoy your Maple Glazed Walnuts as a snack, salad topper, or dessert garnish!
