How to Make Vanilla Spiced Nuts

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 large egg white and 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract until light and foamy.
  3. Add 2 cups of your favorite nuts (such as pecans, walnuts, or almonds) to the bowl and stir to coat evenly with the egg white mixture.
  4. In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves, and a pinch of salt.
  5. Sprinkle the sugar mixture evenly over the nuts, tossing gently to coat completely.
  6. Spread the nut mixture in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 15 minutes at 325°F (160°C).
  8. Remove from oven and gently toss the nuts. Break apart any large clumps.
  9. Turn off the oven and leave the nuts in the oven for an additional 10 minutes with the oven door slightly ajar to allow for even cooling and crisping.
  10. Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack before storing in an airtight container.
