Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups raw peanuts (unsalted)
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoons cayenne pepper (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoons kosher salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the vegetable oil, smoked paprika, cumin, chili powder, brown sugar, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, kosher salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a thick, spiced paste.
Add the raw peanuts to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the spice mixture.
Spread the coated peanuts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the peanuts in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even roasting.
Remove the peanuts from the oven when they are golden brown and fragrant. Allow them to cool completely on the baking sheet; they will crisp up as they cool.
Once cooled, transfer the spiced peanuts to a serving bowl or an airtight container for storage. Enjoy!
