Lime Spiced Nuts

Add these lime spiced nuts to any charcuterie board, give your salad a nutty topping or just snack on them with your favourite cocktail.

Ingredients:

1/4 cup light olive oil

2 tbsps lime juice

1 tbsp maple syrup

2 tsps sea salt

1/2 - 1 tsp red pepper flakes

6 cups assorted nuts

 

Preheat oven to 325°F.

In a large bowl combine the olive oil, lime juice, maple syrup, salt and red pepper flakes. Add the nuts and stir to coat. I used almonds, hazelnuts, pistachios and cashews this time around.  Use what you like or what's on sale.

Spread them out on 2 lined baking sheets. Bake for 20 minutes stirring every 5 minutes until lightly toasted. Then spread them out on a long piece of foil on the counter and let cool for 2 hours. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 3 weeks. Ideal for gift giving.

Makes 6 cups or 8 - 3/4 cup servings
