Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup almonds
- 1 cup pecans
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup light brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg white
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg white, vanilla extract, and water until frothy.
Add the almonds and pecans to the bowl with the egg white mixture, and stir to coat the nuts evenly.
In a separate bowl, combine the granulated sugar, light brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and salt. Mix well.
Pour the sugar-cinnamon mixture over the coated nuts, and toss until the nuts are evenly coated with the sugary mixture.
Spread the nuts out in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes to ensure even cooking and to prevent sticking.
Remove the nuts from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheet. The coating will harden as they cool.
Once cooled, store the nuts in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.
