How to Make Sugar And Spice Nuts
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk the egg white until frothy.
- Add 2 cups of mixed nuts to the bowl and toss to coat evenly with the egg white.
- 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.
- Add the sugar-spice mixture to the nuts and toss gently until all nuts are thoroughly coated.
- Spread the coated nuts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, stirring every 5-7 minutes to ensure even browning and prevent burning.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely on the baking sheet.
- Once cooled, store in an airtight container. Enjoy!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
