This is a savory and slightly sweet superfood snack.
Gift your health-conscious foodie friends these spiced nuts this holiday season. People love them and are relieved to get an alternative to cookies!
This recipe makes a big batch. I often double or triple it when I am making holiday gifts.
Enjoy!

- 1 3/4 cups unsweetened flaked coconut
- 1/2 cup avocado oil or melted coconut oil
- 3 TBSP smoked paprika
- 3 TBSP turmeric powder
- 1/3 cup honey
- Salt and pepper to taste (I usually crack quite a bit of salt and pepper to make it savory!)
Instructions:
