These candied walnuts are perfect for a nice fall salad, crushed on top of oatmeal, or even just as a simple afternoon snack with a cup of tea.

You’ll need:

1 cup of walnuts (almonds and cashews are also nice)

3TB sugar

1.5 TB water

Salt and Pepper to taste

First, mix the water and sugar in a pan and bring to a boil.

Then, stir in the walnuts and coat with the mixture. Stir continually.

Once the mixture has mostly been absorbed (probably 3-4 minutes) remove walnuts from pan and lay on foil to cool.

Yum! We had these tonight with a spinach salad with roasted chicken, butternut squash, and apples. It was delish.
