Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy clean up.

Step 2

Season nuts: Place the nuts in a medium sized mixing bowl. Add the brown sugar, cumin, cayenne, salt and black pepper. Set aside.

Step 3

Melt butter: (On the Stovetop) In a medium sized sauté pan, over medium low heat, melt the butter. Stir in the rosemary and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and stir in maple syrup. (In the Microwave) Melt butter in the microwave. Stir in the rosemary and set aside for 1 minute. Add in the maple syrup.

Step 4

Add butter to nuts: Pour the butter over the nuts. Stir and toss to completely coat.

Step 5

Bake: Transfer the seasoned nuts to the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Bake until nuts are toasted and light golden in color, about 10-15 minutes, tossing once halfway through baking.

Step 6

Cool: Allow the nuts to cool on the pan for 15 minutes. Transfer to a serving bowl or a container with a tight fitting lid for storage. Enjoy!
