Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups shelled pecan halves
  • 2 Tbsp sunflower oil
  • 2 Tbsp maple sugar
  • 2 Tbsp real maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries
  • 1/2 cup dried apples cut in small pieces
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350° F
  2. Place a small pan on medium heat and add the oil, sugar, maple syrup, and salt.
  3. Stir until it comes to a boil and then toss in the nuts.
  4. Keep cooking for another 3 minutes or so and then pour the nuts on a baking sheet covered with baking paper covered in foil to prevent sticking.
  5. Separate the nuts into a single layer and place in the oven for 8-10 minutes. At the 5½ minute mark, stir the nuts and make sure they are in a single layer and bake for the remaining time. Sugar should be visibly crystallized.
  6. Take out of the oven and allow to cool. Mix with dried apples and cranberries.
