Honey glazed walnuts are a delicious and easy-to-make snack or topping that combines the natural sweetness of honey with the crunchiness of walnuts. Here’s a simple recipe to make honey glazed walnuts:
Ingredients:
1 cup of walnut halves 2 tablespoons of honey 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter A pinch of salt Optional: a dash of cinnamon or other spices for flavor
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter. Once melted, add the honey and a pinch of salt. Stir to combine. If you’d like to add a dash of cinnamon or other spices for extra flavor, now is the time to do so.
- Place the walnut halves in a mixing bowl and pour the honey and butter mixture over them. Gently toss the walnuts to ensure they are evenly coated.
- Spread the coated walnuts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake the walnuts in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until they turn golden brown. Be sure to keep an eye on them as they can burn quickly.
- Remove the honey glazed walnuts from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheet. As they cool, the honey glaze will harden, giving the walnuts a sweet and crispy coating.
- Once the honey glazed walnuts have cooled, you can break them apart and enjoy them as a snack, or use them as a topping for salads, yogurt, oatmeal, or desserts.
These honey glazed walnuts make for a delightful combination of sweet and nutty flavors and can be a great addition to a variety of dishes or simply enjoyed on their own as a tasty snack.
