Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp Butter, melted
  • 1 Tbsp Honey
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 2 C California walnuts
  • 1/4 C Powdered sugar
  • 1 Tbsp Matcha powder

Preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Stir together butter, honey and vanilla in a medium bowl. Add walnuts and stir well with a rubber scraper to coat walnuts as evenly as possible.
  2. Spread in an even layer on prepared baking sheet and cook for 10 minutes. Stir and cook for 5 to 7 minutes more or until walnuts are a deep golden brown. Let cool, stirring occasionally, then transfer to a paper towel lined baking sheet to cool completely.
  3. Toss with powdered sugar until walnuts are completely coated in a medium bowl. Add matcha and toss well to coat. Transfer to an airtight container.

     

    Recipe Tip: To keep the walnuts vibrant green color, make sure to remove excess moisture from nuts and make sure they're completely cool.
