🥣Today has been rough, so I made something sweet to lift my spirits.
🌰This recipe takes only 5 minutes to prepare, and you can use any nuts you’d like. You’ll need just 3 ingredients: nuts, maple syrup, and Maldon sea salt flakes. I love having these lightly sweetened nuts as a quick snack, as smoothie toppers, and over coconut ice cream, oatmeal, chia pudding, and mug cakes.
INGREDIENTS
Pecans
Maple syrup
Maldon sea salt flakes
MAKE ‘EM
1. Put pecans in a pan on medium heat, stirring occasionally until they’re fragrant and toasted (you’ll see their brown color deepen a bit). Keep stirring. Watch them closely so they don’t burn.
2. Pour maple syrup (not too much) over the pecans, and stir a bit (1ish minutes, until you see the pecans get a bit sticky/have absorbed the maple syrup.
3. Remove from heat and place on parchment paper to dry. Sprinkle with Maldon sea salt flakes.

A low histamine diet is restrictive and not meant to be followed long-term, as nutrient deficiencies may develop).**
