Ingredients

3 to 4 cups pecans, walnuts, and almonds

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, olive oil, or coconut oil

1 tablespoon chopped rosemary

1 tablespoon chopped sage

1 tablespoon chopped thyme

1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

2 tablespoons maple syrup

1 teaspoon kosher salt

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Place the nuts on an ungreased, rimmed baking sheet and toast them for about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven to cool slightly.

Melt the butter over low heat in a small saucepan. Remove from the heat and add the rosemary, sage, thyme, cayenne, maple syrup, and salt. (If you are using oil, you should gently and briefly warm it as well.

Using a spatula, toss the warm nuts in a medium bowl with the melted herbs and butter until the nuts are coated. Serve! These are best consumed immediately, while warm. They may make your hands a little messy, but it’s worth it. Trust me.
