Also, I feel these mixed nuts make an excellent appetizer for not only your Holiday parties but also anytime when hunger strikes.

I like to keep a small size snack bag near my work desk or even in my purse when I go out for walks or shopping too.

Process to Make Keto Brown Butter Roasted Nuts

Now, I’m going to make 2 Different Version of this appetizer: One would be salty and the other is sweet.

If you like both salty-sweet, then you can create it a 3rd way too.

We start by making ‘Brown Butter’ from our unsalted butter in a skillet or pan

Keto Brown Butter Roasted Nuts process

Then we add the mixed nuts and roast them for a minute or two.

Add the McCormick® Spices, McCormick® Pure Vanilla extract and add salt or sweetener as per choice.

Mix everything and turn off the heat.

Once the mix is ready, we cool it to room temperature, we are ready to serve.

Or, if you plan to make them ahead of time, then just cool the roasted nuts completely and then store in an air-tight jar (to prevent them from being soggy).

Apart from being added to your party or snack menu, these Keto Brown Butter Roasted Nuts make a great Holiday Edible Gifts too.

You can give them as gifts at work, school or even neighbors.

Just pack them in Festive boxes or even glass jar (like below), add some ribbons and you are ready with a gift everyone would love

Infact, I turn it into one big holiday gift box and add the required McCormick® Spices in the box, along with a cute spatula or bowl and a recipe + thanks note.

Your friends/family would Loooove you more every year – I can Literally Bet on This !!!

I found all the ingredients in the Walmart Spice Aisle. They are neatly stacked and displayed (as shown below)
