Keto Candied Walnuts Recipe – How to make easy low carb & sugar free roasted walnuts with cinnamon – with the video.
Keto Candied Walnuts
These Keto Candied Walnuts make a sweet low carb snack, Festive treat or tasty topping for a salad. Walnuts are one of the best keto nuts to include in your diet.
To make the recipe, you’ll need the following ingredients:
Walnuts – you can use sliced, chopped or halved walnuts. (Or really any nut you like in this recipe.)
Egg White – only an egg white is needed and gently whisked until foamy to help all of the ingredients stick to the walnuts, without the need for honey, maple syrup or other sugar loaded ingredient usually used in candied nuts.
I like to save the egg yolk and use it in an omelette or scrambled eggs, so nothing is wasted.
Stevia – use stevia or your sweetener of choice and as little or as much as you’d like depending on how sweet you’d like your recipe to you.
Vanilla & Pinch of Salt – used to balance the flavors.
Cinnamon – use 1/2 to 1 teaspoon, depending on how much of a rich cinnamon flavor you want with your nuts.
Keto Candied Walnuts Recipe
- 1 Egg – white only
- 1-2 Tablespoons Stevia
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla
- Salt
- 0.5 to 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 7 Ounces/200g Walnuts
- Preheat the oven to 250F/120C, line a baking tray with baking paper and grease it well.
- Separate the egg, moving the white to a mixing bowl and saving the yolk to use in scrambled eggs, an omelette or another keto friendly recipe.
- Use a wire whisk to briefly whisk the egg white until frothy.
- Add the stevia and whisk in to incorporate.
- Add the vanilla, a pinch of salt and the cinnamon and whisk until fully combined.
- Add the walnuts and stir through to fully coat the nuts in the sweet batter.
- Move the nuts to the prepared baking tray, flattening them down so they are spaced out in a single layer.
- Place into the preheated oven and roast for 15 minutes.
- Remove from the oven, flip the nuts over and return to the oven for a further 15 minutes.
- Remove the nuts from the oven, flip them and return to the oven for a final 15 minutes or until golden and cooked to your liking.
- Once perfectly roasted, remove from the oven, allow to cool completely to further crisp up and then enjoy.
