Recipe Note: We used a syrup/liquid sweetener for this recipe, as we prefer the nuts to be a little "sticky". If you prefer the same consistency, it would be best to use a syrup like ChocZero or KetoseSweet. Sweeteners like Swerve will not create a syrup like consistency. They will melt and coat the nuts however, so it's up to you on what to use!

“we used a syrup”? well, that’s nice. if you use a low carb sweeter like swerve, it doesn’t get “syrupy”. and the end result is a waste of expensive ingredients. USELESS.
Swerve will melt down but not turn into a syrup, correct. It doesn’t need to be a syrup consistency, but it will still coat the nuts. If you prefer a syrup consistency, it would be best to use one, like ChocZero or KetoseSweet. Apologies that this didn’t turn out how you wanted it to. I will make a note of this in the recipe.
