Servings: 4

Ingredients

Mixed nuts
1 cup, chopped (almonds, walnuts, pecans, or your favorites)
Pure maple syrup
1/2 cup, plus extra for drizzling
Ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon
Unsalted butter
2 tablespoons, for cooking
Flour tortillas
4 large

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the chopped mixed nuts, 1/2 cup of maple syrup, and ground cinnamon. Stir until the nuts are well-coated and the mixture is evenly combined.
  2. Lay each flour tortilla on a flat surface. Spread a generous amount of the nut mixture evenly onto one side of each tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges to prevent spillage.
  3. Fold each tortilla in half, then roll it up tightly to create a burrito shape, ensuring the filling is fully enclosed.
  4. In a large skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat until bubbly and slightly browned for added flavor.
  5. Carefully place the burritos seam-side down in the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy, taking care not to burn the tortillas.
  6. Once cooked, remove the burritos from the skillet and let them cool for a few minutes on a plate to avoid burning your fingers.
  7. Slice the burritos in half diagonally and serve warm, drizzled with extra maple syrup for an indulgent touch. Enjoy the delightful crunch and sweetness!
