Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups mixed raw nuts (e.g., almonds, cashews, pecans, walnuts)
- 1 large egg white
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar (optional for a hint of sweetness)
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 the egg white and water until frothy but not stiff.
Add the mixed nuts to the bowl and toss to coat evenly with the egg white mixture.
In a small bowl, combine kosher salt, smoked paprika, ground cumin, ground cinnamon, cayenne pepper, black pepper, and brown sugar (if using). Stir to mix thoroughly.
Sprinkle the spice mixture over the coated nuts and toss until the nuts are evenly coated with the seasoning.
Spread the seasoned nuts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not clumped together.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, stirring halfway through the baking time to ensure even roasting.
Remove the nuts from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheet. The nuts will crispen as they cool.
Once cool, transfer the savory spiced nuts to an airtight container for storage. They can be kept at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
