roasted with rosemary

Need a new seasonal roasted nut recipe?  This one is sweet from the brown sugar glaze. 

Simple and delish.

                        

You can use any variety of nuts you want.  Pecans, walnuts, cashews, almonds.  I used walnuts, almonds, and cashews.   I think the walnuts take on the flavor combo the best. 

Make sure the nuts are raw because you will roast them in the oven.

It's a great appetizer for any holiday party or a sweet fall snack.
