These are the simplest, yet most delicious way I could enjoy walnut. I know this is borderline Paleo but I use all 100% Pure Maple Syrup so I could have extracted sap from a tree thousands of years ago :). Just don’t over indulge on these, even tough they are Paleo it doesn’t mean you can eat all you want. Feel free to enjoy a couple cups at least though :)

I made these today but they are all cooled but are still so sticky. I was thinking they would be sweet and crunchy so that I could use them in salads. I even tried refrigerating them to see if that would harden up the maple glaze, but it didn’t work. Did I do something wrong or is this the way they were supposed to turn out? I chose your recipe over others I found on the internet because I always prefer to use maple syrup over other types of sugar. They taste good but are a gloppy, sticky sheet of walnuts. Any ideas?
Melissa, mine hardened into a crunchy shell of sweet. Could have been the maple syrup or they just didn’t carmelize long enough.
You are most welcome so glad you likes them
oh my goodness these are good! Thanks for sharing!!!!!
