The sweet and spicy nuts are a great touch. Here is an easy recipe: 2 cups walnuts (or your favorite nut) ¼ cup light brown sugar 1 tablespoon vegan butter 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper 1 tablespoon maple syrup (I add a touch of red pepper flakes for extra heat but that is optional) Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spread nuts on a rimmed baking sheet and toast for 10 minutes. In a large bowl combine melted butter, brown sugar, cayenne pepper and maple syrup. Add nuts, toss to coat. Transfer nuts back on to the baking sheet in a single layer and bake for another 10 minutes.
