Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a large bowl, combine the mixed nuts, maple syrup, honey, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Mix well until the nuts are evenly coated with the sweet and spicy mixture.
-
Spread the nut mixture in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure the nuts are spread out evenly to ensure even roasting.
-
Bake the nuts in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, stirring halfway through the baking time. Keep a close eye on the nuts to prevent them from burning.
-
After the nuts have finished baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. The maple syrup and honey will harden as they cool, creating a deliciously crunchy coating on the nuts.
-
Once the nuts have cooled slightly but are still warm, sprinkle the dried cranberries and blueberries over the top. Gently toss the nuts and dried fruit together to combine.
-
Allow the nuts to cool completely before transferring them to an airtight container for storage. They will keep for up to two weeks at room temperature.
