Tony’s (Maple/Honey) Nuts

Ingredients:

·         1/3 cup plus 1 tbs. Ohio maple Syrup

·         1Tbs. Agave Sugar ( I use stevia)

·         1 generous Tbs. Honey

·         ½ tsp. Sea salt

·         ½ tsp. vanilla extract

·         1tsp. ground cinnamon

 

·         1 cup almonds

·         1 cup walnuts

·         1 cup pecans

·         ¼ cup instant oatmeal

·         ½ cup craisins

·          

Assembly:

 Mix first four ingredients in a cup.  Pour the rest of the ingredients in a mixing bowl.  Then pour the sauce over the nut mixture stirring it all together.

 Place mixture in a pie pan lined with non-stick aluminum foil.  Place in oven on the middle rack at 350 degrees.  Stir mixture every five minutes to keep one side from burning.  After 15 to 20 minutes remove from oven and let cool.
