Cook’s Tips: Store Harvest Spiced Nuts in a tightly covered container at room temperature.

These nuts are a delicious topping for scoops of ice cream, especially ice cream that’s on top of apple pie. Or, add to a dollop of whipped cream on pumpkin pie.

Pumpkin pie spice can be substituted for the Cinnamon Plus™ Spice Blend, if desired.
