Great little snack! Like all my crock pot recipes, quick with few ingredients.
Good, quick, easy and great for the holidays.
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 2 hours
Ingredients:
3 tablespoons butter
1 pound whole, raw almonds (or pecans, if you prefer)
1 ½ tablespoons kosher salt
Method:
1. Put your slow cooker on HIGH and place the butter in crock; allow butter to melt. Once it melts, turn slow cooker to LOW setting and add nuts. Stir to coat the nuts with butter.
2. Cover and cook for 2 hours, stirring several times during cooking process.
3. When done cooking, add the salt and toss to coat the nuts well. Let nuts cool, uncovered. Store in a tightly covered container until serving (if you don’t eat them all first!)
Thanks Tanya
Sounds like you have discovered a neat way to cook nuts in the crock pot - but I bet not many get stored away!
Happy Cooking
