Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups raw walnuts
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Place the raw walnuts in a medium mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt.
Toss the walnuts in the bowl until they are evenly coated with oil and salt.
Spread the walnuts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overlapping for even roasting.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 8-10 minutes. Stir the walnuts halfway through cooking for an even toast.
Keep a close eye on the walnuts during the last few minutes to prevent burning. They should be golden brown and fragrant when done.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the walnuts to cool completely on the tray. They will continue to crisp up as they cool.
Once cooled, transfer the roasted toasted walnuts to an airtight container for storage or serve immediately.
