Indian Spiced Nuts

I posted a spiced nut recipe from Giada De Laurentis last summer. It’s really good! Click HERE to compare it to this recipe. They are both excellent – but I think today’s recipe is slightly more sweet and the other more savory.

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon honey

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1 tablespoon canola or vegetable oil

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

½ teaspoon kosher salt

¼ teaspoon ground cardamom (heaping)

1/8 teaspoon ground cloves

Dash of freshly ground black pepper

½ cup almonds

½ cup hazelnuts

½ cup cashews

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350.

Combine first 8 ingredients in a microwave safe bowl and microwave for 30 seconds. Stir until blended. Add nuts; toss to coat.

Spread nuts evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper – or if you have a silpat, you can use that.

Bake at 350 for 15 minutes, or until golden brown.

Let cool completely (that’s the hardest part!) before serving.
