How to Make Sugar And Spice Nuts

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk the egg white until frothy.
  3. Add 2 cups of mixed nuts to the bowl and toss to coat evenly with the egg white.
  4. In a separate bowl, combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves, and a pinch of salt.
  5. Add the sugar-spice mixture to the nuts and toss gently until all nuts are thoroughly coated.
  6. Spread the coated nuts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, stirring every 5-7 minutes to ensure even browning and prevent burning.
  8. Remove from oven and let cool completely on the baking sheet.
  9. Once cooled, store in an airtight container. Enjoy!
