Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Healthy Recipes     Vegan Recipes

Yield Makes about 8 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 cups walnut halves (about 1 1/4 pounds)
1/2 cup maple sugar
1 tablespoon plus 1 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup brandy
2 tablespoons pure vanilla extract
1 1/3 cups pure maple syrup
2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spread walnuts in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet; toast in oven, stirring occasionally, until fragrant, about 10 minutes. Let cool completely.
  • Meanwhile, combine maple sugar, salt, and cinnamon in a medium bowl; set aside. In a large, deep skillet, combine brandy, vanilla, maple syrup, and butter. Bring to a boil over medium heat, and cook until liquid is reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Stir in nuts, and continue cooking, stirring, until skillet is almost dry, about 3 minutes more.
  • Remove from heat, and immediately add reserved sugar mixture to hot nut mixture; toss until well coated. Spread out coated nuts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and let cool completely, 6 hours or overnight.

Tips:

  • Choose the right sweet potatoes: Look for sweet potatoes that are firm and have smooth, blemish-free skin. Avoid any potatoes that are soft or have cuts or bruises.
  • Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife will help you make clean, even cuts in the sweet potatoes. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Don't overcook the sweet potatoes: Overcooked sweet potatoes will be mushy and bland. Cook them just until they are tender, but still hold their shape.
  • Use a variety of toppings: The maple-walnut topping in this recipe is just one of many possible options. You can also try brown sugar, cinnamon, marshmallows, or even a dollop of ice cream.

Conclusion:

Maple-walnut sweet potatoes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are also a great way to use up leftover sweet potatoes. With a few simple ingredients, you can make a dish that is both satisfying and nutritious.
