Notes
Tips
- Be sure to use raw walnuts. You don’t want to she roasted, toasted or salted as we’ll be doing that so raw nuts are best.
- You can use another kind of nut if you prefer — peanuts, almonds, cashews, pecans would all be delicious too.
- Parchment paper is key to ensure the walnuts don’t stick, so don’t skip it!
- Make sure to stir halfway through baking to ensure even baking. If your oven has hot spots you can also rotate your baking sheet.
