Spiced Xmas nuts.
« on: November 28, 2017, 10:45:57 pm »
The basis for this recipe is from Louise Parker’s, Lean for Life recipe Book. It provides 8 snacks. If using as Xmas nuts I would double the recipe.   They keep well for 2 weeks in a Air tight container.
Ingredients
1 egg white.
70 g Almonds
65 g Cashews
50 g Pecans, (substitute with walnuts if unavailable)
50 g Walnuts
1/2 to 1 teaspoon stevia
1/2 teaspoon of each, allspice, nutmeg and cinnamon. 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated orange peel.
A little olive oil.

Instructions
Heat oven to 325 f, or use Air Fryer 175 for10 minutes cooking on silicon mat.
Beat egg white with stevia and stir into nuts.
Bake in oven for 15 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes.
While still hot sprinkle over spices and spray with a little oil. Fold in well.
Store in Air tight container for up to 2 weeks.

Notes.
Could use a mixture of other nuts.
Could use other spices.
Can also make a paste of spices and oil and fold this in to roasted nuts.

They certainly do like tasty. Is the sweetener really necessary Chookie?

They look good, Chookie.

I couldn't figure out that "Food in well." was actually "Fold in well"!
