Ingredients
1cupwhole pecans
1cupwhole cashews
1Tablespoonbutter melted
1Tablespoonmaple syrup
1/2teaspoonsalt
1Tablespoonmaple sugar or brown sugar
Instructions
Line the air fryer tray with parchment paper cut to fit, then place tray on top.
Place the nuts in a large bowl. Pour the butter over the top, followed by the maple syrup and salt. Stir the nuts to coat. Place them spread out on the mesh tray.
Air fry at 325-degrees for about 5 to 6 minutes or until they begin to smell toasted, stirring one halfway through. They should look browned at the end.
While they are cooking, pull out another small cookie sheet or plate, putting more parchment on it if desired; this will be a surface on which the nuts will cool.
When the nuts are done, pull them from the air fryer and carefully transfer them to the fresh cookie sheet. Let them cool for about 10 minutes, then sprinkle maple sugar on top, stirring to coat. Enjoy immediately, or place in a sealed container at room temperature to eat over the next month.
