Keto Cinnamon Maple Candied Nuts

These keto cinnamon maple candied nuts contain the perfect combination of sweet and salty! Whenever you want a delightful treat, these low carb nuts will always satisfy!

We combine pecans and walnuts with a delicious sweet and salty mixture to create a delicious low carb treat! You can serve this as an appetizer or snack option! I hope you’ll enjoy these nuts as much as we do!

Let’s talk about our ingredients!

We start with a mixture of keto brown and keto granulated sugar. I used the Swerve brand for both my sugars. These sugars contain zero calories and zero net carbs. They’re also delicious! Another nice thing about Swerve sugars is that they are a 1:1 substitution for regular sugar. This means you use the same amount of Swerve as you would regular sugar in recipes. To our sugar mixture, we add cinnamon and salt. One egg white is all that is needed to coat our nuts so all the awesome sugar mixture will stick to them. I love the addition of maple extract for these nuts; but if you’re not a fan of maple, you can substitute with vanilla extract. The nuts I used are a combination of pecans and walnuts. If you’d prefer, you can use all pecans or all walnuts.

Are these keto cinnamon maple candied nuts difficult to make?

These nuts are amazingly easy to make, but there are a few key things you can do to ensure yours turn out perfectly every time. First, you’ll want to line a baking sheet or pan with parchment paper. This will help ensure your nuts won’t stick to the pan. It also makes for easy clean up! I like to use a pan with sides to make stirring the nuts easier. Also, you’ll want to make sure you use a baking pan or sheet large enough your nuts won’t overlap. Next, make sure you stir well to completely coat your nuts in the egg white mixture before adding the sugar mixture. While baking, you’ll want to stir your nuts every 15 minutes or so. Last, after baking, you may have some nuts that stick together. Simply let them cool a bit and break apart any nuts that do stick together.

What are some options for serving these keto cinnamon maple candied nuts?

You have a variety of ways to serve these nuts. They always make for a great snack. These nuts don’t need to be refrigerated, so they work great to bring to work or when you travel. You could also serve these as a sweet and salty appetizer. Since they are sweet, they could even be served as a dessert option. They’re especially fun to serve as part of a dessert array for holiday meals! If you need a delicious treat to bring to a party or get together, these nuts will always be a hit! Another fun idea is to package some nuts in a mason jar or pretty food gift bag and give them to family or friends. This makes for an extra special gift since the time and love you put into making these awesome treats will show through!
