Rosemary and Thyme Walnuts

These rosemary and thyme walnuts offer a sophisticated balance of woody herbs, sweet maple syrup and a gentle kick of cayenne pepper. This vegan snack is a fantastic alternative to shop-bought crisps, providing a satisfying crunch and a rich, earthy flavour that pairs beautifully with a glass of red wine or a chilled aperitif. Roasting the walnuts at a steady temperature ensures they become perfectly crisp without losing their buttery interior.

Quick to prepare and naturally plant-based, these seasoned nuts are a versatile addition to your repertoire. Serve them as an elegant party nibble, scatter them over a fresh autumn salad for extra texture, or package them in jars for a thoughtful homemade gift. Using fresh herbs is essential here, as they release their aromatic oils during the short baking time to create a truly fragrant finish.
