By Knauss

Ingredients

• 2 cups walnuts, raw
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 tablespoons agave nectar or honey
• 1/4 teaspoon celtic sea salt
• 1-2 vanilla beans
• dash cinnamon, ground

Preparation

Step 1

Place walnuts and oil in a cast iron skillet (that’s what I used, you can experiment) and turn heat to high
As soon as you hear the slightest sizzle, turn heat down to medium or low
Toast walnuts a few minutes until they smell nice and nutty
Add agave and distribute around pan stirring, cook for a minute or two, then add salt
Scrape the beans out of the vanilla pod and stir into walnuts
Remove walnuts from pan and add just a dash of cinnamon if you like
Serve
