Today we’re making snack mix: lavender honey nuts that are utterly irresistible.

I love a good snack mix for pool days, and since I’m on vacation this week, now is the perfect time to share this quick lavender honey nuts recipe you can make at home in minutes.
No oven required.
These are cooked on the stovetop, left to cool, then devoured. They’re perfect for snacking, traveling, or serving at a casual gathering.

I’ve been meaning to recreate this since I spotted a similar snack on a book tour stop — I think it was at Leon’s Full Service in Atlanta. We almost ordered the lavender honey nuts but chose grilled bread with ricotta instead. Still, I knew I wanted to make the nuts at home and saved the idea in my phone.

Lavender has been a favorite of mine lately, and it works beautifully here. Nuts are a go-to snack for me when I need a quick energy boost with kids in tow — satisfying and easy to grab.

For this batch I used what I had on hand: whole raw almonds, cashews, and Brazil nuts. Use any mix of nuts you prefer — that’s the beauty of this recipe. After toasting the nuts briefly on the stovetop, they’re glazed with lavender-infused honey, spread on a baking sheet to cool, and finished with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt.
They come out roasted, sweet, salty, and completely addictive.
These are fantastic for everyday snacking, packing for a trip, or setting out at a party alongside cheese and olives. I’m a big fan of serving them as a happy hour nibble.
