Servings 20 servings
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
- 3 tablespoons tamari or coconut aminos
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon minced ginger
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- Pinch of cayenne optional
- 2 cups raw pecans
- 1 cup dry roasted edamame
- 1 cup roasted corn kernels I found mine in the bulk bins at the grocery store, you can substitute with other nuts/seeds
- 2 tablespoons gomasio or toasted sesame seeds
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 275°F.
- Whisk together the sesame oil, tamari, maple syrup, ginger, garlic, salt, and cayenne (if using) in a small bowl or liquid measuring cup.3 tablespoons toasted sesame oil, 3 tablespoons tamari, 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup, 1 teaspoon minced ginger, 2 cloves garlic, ¼ teaspoon sea salt, Pinch of cayenne
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the pecans, dry roasted edamame, and crunchy corn. Pour the liquid ingredients on top and mix well to combine. Sprinkle with gomasio (or sesame seeds) and stir.2 cups raw pecans, 1 cup dry roasted edamame, 1 cup roasted corn kernels, 2 tablespoons gomasio or toasted sesame seeds
- Spread on a large parchment-lined baking sheet. If there's liquid left in the bowl, don't pour it over the nuts - just discard it or use it to coat more nuts.
- Bake for 40 to 50 minutes, stirring once or twice in the middle of baking to keep an eye on it and make sure everything is cooking evenly. You’ll want to let it bake until dry and crispy but not burned, so baking time might vary slightly. Sprinkle with more gomasio or toasted sesame seeds after it comes out of the oven.
- Let cool completely before serving or storing in an airtight container.
