Spiced Roasted Nuts

Ingredients

0 of 9 out on the counter

• 1 cup whole raw almonds
• 1 cup walnut halves
• 1 cup raw cashews
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• 1 tsp ground cumin
• ½ tsp garlic powder
• ⅛ tsp cayenne
• ¼ tsp salt

All set! Everything is out. Time to bake.

Method

1. 1Heat the oven to 325 °F with a rack in the middle. Line a rimmed sheet pan with parchment.
2. 2Put the nuts in a bowl, add the oil and toss until every nut is shiny. Stir the paprika, cumin, garlic powder, cayenne and salt together, sprinkle it over and toss until the nuts are evenly dusted.
3. 3Spread them on the pan in one layer. Roast 12 to 15 minutes, stirring once halfway, until a shade darker and fragrant. Walnuts brown first, so watch the last few minutes.
4. 4Cool them completely on the pan, about 30 minutes. They crisp as they cool.
5. 5Keep them airtight at room temperature up to 1 week. For a hike, portion them into small bags at home.
