Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups raw mixed nuts (I have used almonds, cashews, and pecans)
  • 2 tablespoon unsalted butter melted
  • 2 tablespoon Maple Syrup
  • 1 teaspoon red chili powder
  • 1 ½ teaspoon fine-grain sea salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 300° F.
  • Line a large and rimmed cookie sheet or baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
  • Combine the melted butter, maple syrup, red chili powder, and sea salt in a medium mixing bowl.
  • Add the nuts and toss well until they are entirely coated with butter mixture.
  • Spread them in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake the nuts for 15 minutes, then stir the nuts, and shuffle around.
  • Then continue baking for 15 minutes more or until the nuts are deeply golden. During the second 15 minutes of baking, stir the nuts every 5 minutes.
  • It is crucial to keep an eye on the oven after 20 minutes to ensure that nuts are perfectly roasted and not burned.
  • Remove the nuts from the oven and let them cool completely in the pan before serving and storing.

Storing Suggestions

  • Store the roasted nuts in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a month.
  • It also freezes well, stored in a freezer-safe container or bag for six months.

Notes

  1. Make sure to use raw and unsalted nuts for the recipe.
  2. While baking, it is essential to stir the nuts in between for even toasting.
  3. Maple syrup provides excellent flavor and candied texture to the nuts. But if you do not have maple syrup, you can use honey instead.
  4. If using salt other than fine-grain sea salt, adjust the quantity as needed.
  5. Make sure to line the baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper; otherwise, maple syrup will stick to the pan.
