Cooking Substitutions

  • Match & match nuts: Swap in your favorite nuts or seeds but make sure to adjust cooking time if using smaller seeds. Try incorporating cashews, hazelnuts, pumpkin seeds or peanuts.
  • Sweetness: These nuts have just the right amount of sweetness; however, add more or less depending on your taste. Swap in honey instead of maple syrup.
  • Cooking fat: If you’re not a fan of bison tallow, try swapping in pork leaf lard for another neutral flavor cooking fat. We haven't tried this recipe with beef tallow; however, since this recipe is savory the beef flavor may get hidden by the spices. Let us know if you try it with beef tallow!


Roasted Coconut Almonds & Walnuts with Bison Tallow

Prep time: 5 minutes
Cook time: 12-14 minutes
Total time: 20 minutes
Makes: 1 cup

Ingredients
1 cup mixed unsalted almonds and walnuts (or your favorite nuts)
2 tsp bison tallow, melted
1 tbsp maple syrup
3 tbsp unsweetened coconut shreds
¼ tsp vanilla extract
¼ tsp sea salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 300 F.
  2. In a small pot, add bison tallow over medium-high heat. Once the tallow is completely melted, turn off and set aside.
  3. In a small bowl, mix maple syrup, unsweetened coconut shreds, vanilla extract and salt.
  4. Add the almonds and walnuts into the mixture. Using a spoon, mix well until all nuts are fully coated. Then drizzle the melted bison tallow over the nut mixture and mix until fully coated.
  5. Line a sheet tray with parchment paper. Spread the nuts on the tray making sure they are in a single layer.
  6. Bake for 14 to 16 minutes, or until golden brown. Halfway through baking give it a good shake to mix the nuts. DO NOT BURN! Once done, remove from the oven and let cool. As the nuts cool they will go from soft to crunchy.
  7. Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
