Just a touch of liquid smoke, found in the condiment section of your grocery store, adds irresistibly rich and smoky flavour to these sweetened nuts. Any combination of nuts, such as almonds, cashews, walnuts, pecans or hazelnuts, can be used.

Ingredients
Method
In saucepan, bring brown sugar, oil, honey, pepper and 3 tbsp water to boil; cook for 2 minutes.
In large bowl, mix nuts with brown sugar mixture until coated; stir in salt and liquid smoke. Spread on parchment paper–lined baking sheet.
Bake in 375°F (190°C) oven, stirring 3 times, until deep golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool completely on pan, stirring and breaking up nuts often to prevent clumps. (Make-ahead: Store in airtight container for up to 2 days.)
Makes about 4 cups.
