Ingredients:
1. Nuts:
The star ingredient of this recipe is, of course, the nuts. You can use a variety of nuts such as almonds, walnuts, cashews, and pecans. These nuts not only provide a crunchy texture but also offer a nutrient-packed addition to the mix. Almonds are a great source of healthy fats and protein, while walnuts are rich in omega-3 fatty acids. Cashews and pecans also provide a good amount of healthy fats and nutrients like magnesium and vitamin E.
2. Spices:
To give these nuts their holiday twist, we'll need some warm spices. The cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger not only add flavor but also provide health benefits. Cinnamon has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, while nutmeg is known for its digestive benefits. Ginger is also known for its anti-inflammatory and immune-boosting properties.
3. Sweeteners:
To balance out the spices, we'll need some sweetness. You can opt for honey or maple syrup as a natural sweetener, or use brown sugar for a deeper flavor. These sweeteners will also help to bind the spices and nuts together.
4. Salt:
A pinch of salt is essential to bring out the flavors of the nuts and spices. You can use sea salt or pink Himalayan salt for added minerals and flavor.
5. Egg White:
The secret ingredient to making these nuts extra crispy is the egg white. This helps to coat the nuts and spices together and gives them a crunchy texture once baked.
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 300°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, mix together the nuts, spices, and a pinch of salt.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg white until frothy and then add it to the nut mixture. Mix well until the nuts are evenly coated.
4. Spread the nuts evenly onto the prepared baking sheet.
5. Bake for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the nuts are golden brown and fragrant.
6. Remove from the oven and let the nuts cool completely.
7. Once cooled, transfer the nuts to an airtight container and store at room temperature for up to two weeks.
