Savory and Sweet Spicy Nut Mix for Your Next Gathering

Ingredients List

• cooking spray

• 1 cup untoasted walnut halves

• 1 cup untoasted pecan halves

• 1 cup unsalted, dry roasted almonds

• 1 cup unsalted, dry roasted cashews

• 1 teaspoon salt

• ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

• ¼ teaspoon ground cumin

• ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper

• ½ cup white sugar

• ¼ cup water

• 1 tablespoon butter

Instructions

Collect all the necessary ingredients. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with aluminum foil and lightly spraying it with cooking spray.

In a large bowl, mix together walnuts, pecans, almonds, and cashews. Add salt, black pepper, cumin, and cayenne pepper, then toss to evenly coat the nuts.

In a small saucepan, combine sugar, water, and butter. Heat over medium, stirring until the butter melts and the sugar dissolves, about 1 minute.

Gradually pour the butter mixture over the nuts, stirring to evenly coat them.

Transfer the coated nuts onto the prepared baking sheet, spreading them out into a single layer.

Bake the nuts in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Stir them to coat with the warm syrup, then spread them back into a single layer. Continue baking for another 6 minutes, or until the nuts become sticky and roasted. Let them cool before serving.

Let the nuts cool down before serving them.
