These are a perfect crunchy snack that carry a hint of cinnamon and sweetness. I would call it a savory snack, though. I bet it would taste great with pecans, too!
Recipe: Salted Cinnamon Walnuts
3 cups walnuts
2 TBSP coconut oil, melted
1 TBSP honey or pure maple syrup
3/4 tsp salt
1.5 tsp cinnamon
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Combine all ingredients in a bowl and stir until walnuts are well-coated. Pour into a single layer on the baking sheet and bake for about 8-9 minutes, until starting to turn a golden brown (be careful not to overcook). Let cool for 5-10 minutes on the baking sheet before eating.

Can we replace agave for honey/maple syrup? Also I’ve never used coconut oil? Where would I find it? Baking isle, specialty store? Thank you! I’m excited to make these!

You can use agave, but I don’t normally use it. As for coconut oil, it is in mostly any grocery store, maybe in the asian section or health food section. You can also buy it online (I buy mine in bulk off Amazon or from Tropical Traditions). Hope that helps!
