Nut & Seed Brittle

I love packing nourishing ingredients into treats, like my Granola Bars and Cookie Dough Bars. This brittle is the perfect combination of sweet and salty, with an amazing crunch and a layer of dark chocolate on top. Use any nuts or seeds you have or love—this brittle is a great way to combine it all for a snack or lunchbox treat.

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla paste
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon tahini
  • ¼ cup sesame seeds
  • 3/4 cup pumpkin seeds
  • ¼ cup sliced almonds
  • ½ cup cashews, roughly chopped
  • ¼ cup chocolate chips
  • Flaky sea salt

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, vanilla, cinnamon, salt, and tahini. 
  3. Add the sesame seeds, pumpkin seeds, sliced almonds, and cashews. 
  4. Mix well to get the dry ingredients coated in the wet. 
  5. Pour the mixture onto the baking sheet and press into a flat layer about ¼” thick using another piece of parchment paper. This will prevent you from getting sticky!
  6. Bake for 20 minutes, until lightly golden. 
  7. Remove the pan from the oven and cover with chocolate chips. Return the pan to the oven for 1 minute.
  8. Use a knife or offset spatula to spread the chocolate over the brittle. Sprinkle the chocolate with flaky sea salt. 
  9. Place in the refrigerator to cool completely, then slice into pieces.
