Ingredients

    • 4 cups California walnut halves
    • 4 tablespoons real maple syrup
    • 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
    • 1/4 teaspoon salt
    • generous pinch of cayenne pepper

Directions

    1. Preheat oven to 325°F.
    2. In medium bowl combine all ingredients. Mix until walnuts are evenly coated with maple syrup and seasonings.
    3. Spread walnuts on non-stick baking sheet, or baking sheet coated with nonstick cooking spray.
    4. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until nuts are lightly browned. Allow to cool on baking sheet. (Nuts will become dry and crunchy as they cool.)
