Instructions
Step 1
Prepare a baking sheet layered with parchment paper (DO NOT USE WAX PAPER - nuts will stick to paper). Set aside.
Step 2
In a medium skillet add brown sugar, maple syrup, water, and salt. Heat over medium heat until bubbly and sugar dissolves, about 1 minute. Add nuts and continue to cook and stir until syrup thickens and reduces, about 2 minutes. Do not remove from stove top until almost all the liquid has reduced.
Step 3
Immediately transfer nuts to the baking sheet and spread out with spoon. Candied nuts will harden as they cool.
