Step 1

Heat a medium non-stick skillet over medium heat, add 1 cup walnuts, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, and 1 Tbsp butter.

Step 2

Heat over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent burning. When the sugar mixture starts melting, stir constantly until all sugar melts and nuts are coated.

Step 3

Transfer immediately onto a sheet of parchment paper and separate the nuts right away. Using two spatulas will make this task faster.

Step 4

Once the coating hardens (5-7 minutes), transfer them to a bowl and enjoy!

Chef’s notes

The recipe can easily be doubled.

Move quickly from the time the nuts are coated until they are separated out on the parchment paper to avoid clumping.
