How to Toast Pine Nuts

1 . Stage

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

2 . Stage

Bake the pine nuts: Spread pine nuts on a roomy baking sheet—the size doesn’t matter as long as they are spread out without overlapping. Bake until the nuts are deeply golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Shuffle the nuts with a spatula about halfway through baking. Keep a close eye on them, since they can easily burn.

3 . Stage

Cool: Leave pine nuts on the baking sheet until completely cooled.

4 . Stage

Toast on skillet: Set a medium skillet on the stove over medium heat. When the skillet is hot, add the pine nuts, spreading them out into an even layer. After 1 minute, use a spatula to stir the pine nuts to get all sides deeply golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Don’t walk away from the stove, since they can quickly burn. If the pine nuts brown too quickly, pull the skillet off the heat or reduce the heat.

5 . Stage

Cool: Transfer the pine nuts to a plate to cool. Store the Pine Nuts
