SWEET AND SALTY CINNAMON NUTS



Sweet and Salty Cinnamon Nuts image

This is one of my favorite recipes to make when I need to make a snack really quick. I have made these nuts a couple of times and packaged them for Christmas gifts. They also make a good snack on a cold evening. I often make a double batch and use both pecans and walnuts. Salt can be varied depending on how salty you would like them to be. This recipe was originally from a really old Betty Crocker cookbook, but I varied it a little.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of nuts. This will add interest and complexity to your cinnamon nuts. Some good options include almonds, pecans, walnuts, and cashews.
  • Use the right amount of cinnamon. Too much cinnamon can be overpowering, so start with a small amount and adjust to taste.
  • Toast the nuts before coating them in cinnamon sugar. This will help to bring out their flavor and make them more crunchy.
