Maple Roasted Pecans are a very quick and easy snack recipe. Coated in maple syrup and roasted to give you a deliciously sweet, crunchy nut. These nuts are so addictive! They are super easy to prepare, and of course so flexible, that you can change the nuts and seasoning to suit your own taste buds.
Here, I used pecan nuts with Maple syrup and a shake of sea salt. The combination of those two simple flavors works really well and this certainly makes for a great snack.
It took me only a few minutes to prepare so when I was using the oven anyway, I just made up a quick batch of these nuts and popped them in the oven whilst I had other things cooking.
Very easy and keeps in a container for quite a while. Mine lasted 2 hours and they were all gone, but I imagine they will store for a couple of weeks. Just give the container a good shake if the nuts stick together. Great for snacks, parties and movie nights.

1 Cup Pecan Nuts
2 - 3 Tablespoons Maple Syrup
¾ Teaspoons Sea Salt
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350 F / 180 C.

3. Place pecans on baking tray.
4. Drizzle Maple syrup over nuts, season with sea salt.
