Maple Roast Sunflower Seeds

There are less than 9 days till Christmas! How did that happen? No matter how hard as I try to get ahead of myself in the gift department, time always seems to slip away from me. For past holidays I’ve made and gifted everything from Gingerbread Men Cookies to Double Chocolatey Hot Cocoa in a Jar, but sometimes the most simple gifts — like these Maple Roast Sunflower Seeds — make the best ones.

All you have to do for this easy recipe is put all of the ingredients in a bowl, toss, dump onto a baking sheet and then bake until golden. When the sunflower seeds come out of the oven they have a nutty, crunchy flavor with a perfect touch of sweetness from the maple syrup. Once you eat a handful, I guarantee you won’t be able to stop yourself from eating the whole batch.

I like to put them in cute mason jars, tie a bow around the top and add a note. I make a lot as they come in super handy as a last minute gift idea. They’re also an especially great treat for kids with nut allergies since they’re seeds, meaning you can toss them in school lunch for a boost of protein and a guaranteed smile from your little one.

Whether you need a sweet holiday gift for someone who enjoys a healthy treat or you’re simply looking to fill bowls around your house with something special to munch on during the holidays, these Maple Roast Sunflower Seeds will be right up your alley. Hurry up and make some, Christmas is almost here!
