Heat a small pan over low heat, and add the chopped walnuts to the pan. Stir frequently and toast until the walnuts just barely begin to become fragrant, about 4 to 6 minutes. Remove from heat, and allow them to cool for 10 to 15 minutes before making the cream cheese.
1 ounce(s) walnuts
Place the cream cheese, walnuts pieces, honey, cinnamon, and salt into the food processor. Pulse to combine until a smooth, cream cheese mixture forms.
Use a spatula to transfer the mixture into a sealable container. Refrigerate until ready to use. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Enjoy on bagels, toast, or crackers.
