Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp Butter, melted

  • 1 1/2 Tbsp Sriracha sauce

  • 1 Tbsp Honey

  • 2 C California walnuts

  • 1/4 C Sugar

  • 1 Lime (finely grated zest only)

Preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Stir together honey, sriracha sauce, butter and lime zest in a medium bowl. Add walnuts and stir to coat evenly with mixture.

  3. Sprinkle with sugar while stirring and stir well again.

  4. Spread in an even layer on prepared baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes or until a deep golden brown, stirring halfway through cooking.

  5. Stir once or twice while cooling, then let cool completely. Store in an airtight container until ready to serve.

    Recipe Tip: If nuts get sticky when storing, add a tablespoon of sugar to the container. Close tightly and shake to coat.
