Cook 20 Minutes
Serves
Method
Preheat oven to 160°C
Line a large rimmed tray with baking paper so the maple syrup doesn’t get stuck to the pan.
Pour the Sunbeam natural almonds, raw cashews and pepitas onto the tray and set it aside.
In a small bowl, combine the maple syrup, melted butter, salt, rosemary, and cayenne. Stir till blended.
Pour the mixture over the nuts on the prepared baking sheet. Stir well, until all of the nuts are lightly coated. Then spread the mixture in a single layer across the tray.
Bake in oven, stirring after the first 10 minutes and then every 5 minutes thereafter, until almost no maple syrup remains on the parchment paper and the nuts are golden, approx 20 minutes.
Remove tray from the oven and stir the nuts one more time, spreading them into an even layer & let them cool. Once cool store in a airtight jar and gift to dad on Fathers Day!
