Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups mixed nuts (unsalted)
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
Instructions
In a large, microwave-safe bowl, combine the honey and butter.
Microwave the honey and butter mixture on high for 30 seconds, or until the butter is melted.
Stir in the salt, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Add the mixed nuts to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the honey mixture.
Spread the coated nuts into an even layer on a microwave-safe plate lined with parchment paper.
Microwave the nuts on high for 5 to 6 minutes, stirring every 2 minutes to ensure even roasting. Watch closely toward the end to prevent burning.
Once done, carefully remove the plate from the microwave and immediately sprinkle the granulated sugar over the warm nuts, tossing to coat evenly.
Let the nuts cool completely on the plate. As they cool, they will become crisp and crunchy.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
