These cocktail nuts are my lower carb take an a snack I picked up while traveling recently. The maple and rosemary combo was just too tempting to resist. The pre-packaged nuts weren’t overly sweet, despite the use of real maple syrup. So I tried to emulate that by adding just a touch of sweetener to my version. The result was a salty, addictive snack with just a hint of sweetness.
