In Celtic folklore, the walnut tree—and the nuts that fall from it—are associated with an unrelenting passion for all of life’s challenges. Maybe that’s why I’m so crazy for this treat. Or maybe it’s just because I love crunchy maple treats. Someone laughingly said that these delicious nuts are like peanut brittle without the chewy toffee grout. All I know for sure is that this is a delight for those who gravitate toward crispy snacks. Plus, walnuts have so many nutritional benefits. In addition to being high in omega-3s, they’re heart-healthy and may even help slow memory loss. So don’t be shy about eating these straight up, or sprinkle them on cereal, salad, or anything you like for extra flavor and crunch.
