Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Spread the breadcrumbs on a cookie sheet, bake until golden, about 5 minutes and transfer to a mini food processor or blender. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the Nuts and toast, stirring, until fragrant, about 4 minutes. Transfer to the processor and pulse to chop. Transfer the mixture to a small bowl, add the salt and stir well.
