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)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the egg white and water until frothy but not stiff.
Step 3
Add the mixed nuts to the bowl and toss to coat evenly with the egg white mixture.
Step 4
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.
Step 5
Sprinkle the spice mixture over the coated nuts and toss until the nuts are evenly coated with the seasoning.
Step 6
Spread the seasoned nuts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not clumped together.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, stirring halfway through the baking time to ensure even roasting.
Step 8
Remove the nuts from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheet. The nuts will crispen as they cool.
Step 9
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.
