Why we love Sweet and Salty Peanuts Recipe

Candied nuts are always a must in my kitchen–they’re so great to have on hand to add to any dish that needs an added pop of flavor or crunchy texture! Sweet and Salty Peanuts are great to snack on or take with you on any your adventures. We adore this super fun Candied Peanut Graham Granola Bites recipe that I put them in! It was SOOOOO good. 🙂
