Cinnamon Maple Macadamias

I'mPat's Note:

From Justine Schofield hostess/cook of Everyday Gourmet and she suggested that this would be lovely sprinkled over your breakfast cereal or as a topping for yogurt or porridge. For dietary reasons I would use sugar free maple syrup to make it diabetic friendly.

Lovely New Years snack. I was a little worried about browning the nuts, but no problem. Doubled the recipe as we enjoyed on New Years Eve. Great flavoring. Made for PRMR tag
