Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 8 cups dehydrated* or raw walnuts
  • 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/3 cup fresh rosemary chopped
  • 4 tsp Celtic coarse sea salt or kosher salt
  • 2-4 tbsp real maple syrup
  • 2 tsp fresh ground pepper

Equipment

  • 2 large sheet pans

Method
 

  1. Start with soaked and dehydrated walnuts (see notes below) or use raw walnuts. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and set out two large sheet pans.
  2. Measure just over 8 cups walnuts and pour onto the pans. Mix together remaining ingredients in a bowl and pour evenly over walnuts. Use your hands to mix it all together, ensuring that the oil mixture coats the nuts.
  3. Bake for 12-15 minutes, stirring halfway through. (If you start with dehydrated nuts, the baking time will be shorter; raw nuts will take longer to bake).
  4. Let cool on baking sheets, then divide into for quart sized bags for gifting, or store in an airtight container.
