Recipe From Karen's Kitchen
SPICED CHRISTMAS NUTS
1 egg white
1 Tbs. water
1 lb. whole shelled chashews
1 lb. dry roasted or virginia peanuts
1/3 c. granulated sugar
1 rounded Tbs. anjou chili powder
2 rounded tsp. ground cumin
1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper or more to your liking
Whisk the egg white and water until very frothy in a large bowl. Add the nuts and stir until well coated and the egg white is thoroughly coating the nuts. In a small bowl combine sugar and spices. Stir into nuts until all are well coated. Spray a large cookie sheet lightly with butter spray and arrange nuts on this in a single layer.
Bake in 250 oven, uncovered, for 1 1/4 hours, stirring once. Cool completely and store in airtight container.
***I bet you can't eat just one!!!! This recipe calls for 2 tsp. of salt which I never think is necessary. If you have a Fleet Farm in your area, it is the best place to buy nuts.
