Spiced Nuts

Ingredients

• Assorted shelled nuts (almonds, cashews, peanuts, etc.)

For sweet and spicy nuts:

• Peanut oil, for drizzling
• Sugar, to taste
• Kosher salt, to taste
• Chinese five-spice powder, to taste

For savory nuts:

• Peanut oil, for drizzling
• Kosher salt, to taste
• Chili powder, to taste

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

For a sweet and spicy nut, toss your choice of nuts with oil, sugar, salt and a few dashes of Chinese five-spice powder.

For a savory and spicy nut, toss your choice of nuts with oil, salt and a few dashes of chili powder.

Lay out the nuts in an even layer on a baking dish. Bake, redistributing the nuts every 7 minutes or so to make sure they cook evenly, until the nuts are lightly browned, about 15 to 20 minutes.
