Maple Nut Encrusted Salmon

With the holidays right around the corner, I’m always looking for new recipes to serve my guests. This sweet & savory maple pecan and walnut crusted salmon is sure to be a crowd pleaser at your next holiday gathering.

The salmon is generously seasoned with a homemade spice rub, then topped with a crunchy maple pecan and walnut crust. It gets baked until the nuts are golden brown and the salmon flakes with a fork.

This dish is easy enough to make for a family weeknight dinner, and fancy enough to bring to your next holiday gathering or dinner party. You can make this with smaller filets, or a large piece of salmon as pictured for a larger crowd.

The walnuts and pecans add delicious savory flavor, and the maple syrup adds the perfect balance of sweetness.
