This maple crunch makes a nice topping to sprinkle on yogurt and frozen banana ice cream. I tore the recipe from a magazine quite some time ago, so I can't recall its source to give credit where it's due.
Maple Crunch
¼ cup whole raw almonds, roughly chopped (I have also used Brazil nuts.)
1/3 cup walnuts, roughly chopped
2 tbsp raw sunnies
½ tsp cinnamon
¼ tsp nutmeg
1 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
2 tbsp maple syrup (the real deal… not aunt jemima)
Heat oven to 375°. Line a baking pan with parchment paper. Combine all ingredients and spread in a single layer on the prepared pan. Bake about 5 minutes until the mixture is fragrant and the maple syrup has turned thicker. Remove from the oven and cool. Stir in 2 tbsp dried cranberries.
