Healthy Glazed Nuts
This glazed nuts recipe is something I make for our household as a guilt-free snack. It’s healthy, delicious and the perfect gift to give out to friends. It’s naturally sweetened with maple syrup with a hint of brandy to spice things up. You can substitute any nuts you wish. In our household, I like to keep all nuts equal, but we do have arguments such as; “Are you selectively picking out just the pecans!”…
Enjoy healthy snacking!

Notes
*Select your favorite nut mix.
Glazed nuts are gone fast! This is why I chose to make 3 cups.
If you want to keep the nuts raw you can use dehydrator for 12 hours on 105º F instead of an oven.
You can use the glazed nuts as an addition to salad or desserts.
