For easier cleanup, soak the baking pan immediately after removing the walnuts from the oven. Store cooled walnuts in an airtight container at room temperature to maintain their crispness. Experiment with different extracts such as almond or maple for a unique flavor twist. Consider adding a pinch of cayenne pepper to the cinnamon mixture for a subtle kick.
