Ingredients
- 2 pounds raw mixed nuts unsalted
- 1 cup pure maple syrup
- 1/2 cup raw cane sugar
- 2 large egg whites
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
- 1 pinch cayenne
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a small sauce pot over medium heat, whisk together maple syrup and cane sugar until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and cool.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk egg whites until foamy. Add salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cayenne and cloves and whisk until well combined.
- Add maple syrup mixture to the egg white and whisk until combined. Add the nuts and stir the mixture until the nuts are well coated.
- Divide the nuts between the two baking pans and spread them into a single layer. Pour any leftover maple syrup over the top of the nuts.
- Bake, tossing the nuts every 10 minutes or so, until the maple syrup has evaporated and the nuts are only slightly sticky. Do not let them burn.
- Remove from oven and stir well. Allow to cool, and stir again, breaking up the clusters, if desired. Store in an airtight container.
Notes
- Makes great gifts!
