Sweet & Spicy Mixed Nuts


Sweet with a little heat!!  Yes - a great holiday giftable - but that ship has sailed so let's think college bowl game parties, New Year's Eve & Super Bowl!!

1 cup each pecans, almonds & walnuts. All raw and unsalted
1 egg white
1 T water
2/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup dark brown sugar (packed)
1 T cinnamon
1 t salt
1/2 t cayenne pepper

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and preheat oven to 300F. 
In a bowl whisk together dry ingredients 
On a separate bowl, whisk egg white and water until foamy. 
Coat the nuts with the egg mixture and then with the dry ingredients 

Pour out onto the baking sheet and bake for about 30 minutes, stirring about halfway through. You want it all to be dry and crispy. When it's cooled you can break it apart and store in an airtight container.
