Number Of Ingredients 8

1 egg white
1 tablespoon water
1 teaspoon table salt
1 pound pecans , cashews, walnuts, or whole unblanched almonds
2/3 cup superfine sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ginger
1 teaspoon coriander

Steps:

  • 1. Adjust two oven racks to the upper- and lower-middle positions and heat the oven to 275 degrees. Whisk the egg white, water, and salt together in a medium bowl. Add the nuts and toss to coat. Drain in a colander for 5 minutes. 2. Mix the sugar, cinnamon, ginger, and coriander together. Toss the spices with the drained nuts. Spread the nuts evenly on two parchment-lined baking sheets. Bake until the nuts are dry and crisp, about 50 minutes, stirring occasionally and rotating the baking sheets halfway through. Remove from the oven and let the nuts cool completely on the baking sheet, about 30 minutes. Break the nuts apart and serve. To Make Ahead The nuts can be stored at room temperature, wrapped tightly in plastic wrap, for up to 1 week.

Tips:

  • Choose the right nuts: Different nuts have different flavors and textures, so choose ones that you enjoy and that will complement the spices you're using.
  • Use fresh spices: Ground spices lose their flavor over time, so use fresh ones whenever possible. If you don't have fresh spices on hand, you can use ground spices, but be sure to use less since they're more concentrated.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When roasting the nuts, make sure to spread them out in a single layer so that they cook evenly. If you overcrowd the pan, the nuts will steam instead of roast.
  • Roast the nuts until they're fragrant: The nuts are done roasting when they're fragrant and lightly browned. Be careful not to over-roast them, or they will become dry and bitter.
  • Let the nuts cool completely before storing them: Once the nuts are roasted, let them cool completely before storing them. This will help them to stay fresh and crispy.

Conclusion:

These cinnamon-spiced nuts are a delicious and easy snack that can be enjoyed all year round. They're perfect for parties, potlucks, or just a quick snack at home. With a variety of flavors to choose from, there's sure to be a recipe that everyone will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a healthy and tasty snack, give these cinnamon-spiced nuts a try.
