Instructions

1 ✓

Toast walnuts in dry skillet until fragrant. Chop coarsely.

Tip: Heat activates oils for intense flavor. Watch closely to prevent burning!
2 ✓

Pour cider into saucepan, add sugar, cinnamon, cloves. Heat medium 5-10 mins.

Tip: Brown sugar adds molasses notes fitting the caramel profile.
3 ✓

Mix cream, vanilla, salt in small bowl.

Tip: Salt is essential for salted caramel effect.
4 ✓

Temper cream: Ladle hot cider into cream, mix, then pour back into pot.

Tip: Prevents cold cream from seizing/curdling in hot acid.

Heat through (don't boil!), strain spices.

Tip: Boiling separates cream fat.
6 ✓

Serve in mugs topped generously with toasted nuts.

Tip: Crunchy nuts vs silky drink is the best part.

Recipe FAQ

Cream curdled?
Happens if cider is too acidic or hot. Use heavy cream (min 30% fat) and never boil.
Which nuts?
