Healthy Snack (Nuts baked in maple syrup)

I love munching something while having a evening coffee. I love Mutigrain Biscuits from Trader Joe's. The biscuits are very small and they are very tasty. By eating something healthy it makes me feel better at the end of the day. But eating the same thing everyday, i get bored. This recipe is very easy to make and you can prepare and store them in air tight container. You'll not stop eating them. They are crunchy, sweet, tart and moreover its healthy. I always have almonds, walnuts stored in the freezer and that way they retain the essential oil in them. The ingredients i used is what i had in my pantry, you can try any nuts and dried fruits. I am so addicted to this right now.
