Honey roasted walnuts

Homemade honey roasted walnuts

I made these easy honey roasted walnuts to use a crunchy topping for this spinach raspberry salad. I was looking for something slightly different than the standard candied walnuts so I used honey and some chili powder.  These homemade roasted walnuts are also great in other salads or simply served as a snack.

  5. Great recipe! Sweet, with just a pinch of salt and an undertone of smoky chili powder. Great as a snack or an addition to almost any salad.
    This recipe is definitely a keeper. Thanks!

  6. Definite keeper! Just finished a double batch and they turned out perfectly. We will use them in a chicken salad with walnut oil dressing.

  7. I am trying the recipe for the first time and they have 5 mins. left in the oven. They look and smell delicious!
