Roasting the Peanuts

Once they're done, let them cool before coating them in the spice blend.
Coating and Serving
Once the peanuts are roasted, it's time to coat them in the spice blend. In a separate bowl, mix together the spices and some melted butter until well combined. Then, add the peanuts and toss them until they're completely coated in the spice blend. You can serve these Mexican peanuts warm or at room temperature. They make a great snack on their own, but you can also add them to salads, trail mix, or use them as a topping for soups or stews.
