Ingredients

  • 1 cup walnut halves or chopped walnuts (We LOVE California Walnuts!)
  • 1 tablespoon salted butter
  • 1/3 cup dark brown sugar

Instructions

  • Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat.
  • Add the walnuts, butter, and brown sugar and allow to melt, stirring with a spatula constantly to coat the walnuts. Once the walnuts are coated and the butter and sugar are fully melted, turn off the heat.
  • Pour the walnuts onto a piece of parchment paper into one single layer, separating the walnuts to make sure they don't dry clumped together.
  • Allow to dry 2 minutes before putting in an airtight container or enjoying.
  • They're perfect on this Baked Brie Bread Bowl !
  • Enjoy!
