Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Raw mixed nuts (almonds, cashews, walnuts, peanuts, etc.)
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika (smoked or sweet)
- 0.25 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Brown sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, chili powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, ground cumin, brown sugar, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a uniform spice blend.
Add the raw mixed nuts to the bowl and toss them thoroughly, ensuring they are evenly coated with the spice mixture.
Spread the seasoned nuts evenly across the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
Roast the nuts in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even toasting.
Keep an eye on the nuts during the last few minutes of roasting to prevent them from burning. They should be golden and fragrant when done.
Remove the nuts from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheet. The seasoning will adhere better as they cool.
Once cooled, transfer the chili mixed nuts to an airtight container for storage. They will stay fresh for up to two weeks.
Serve as a snack on their own or as part of a party platter to delight your guests.
