Jan’s Rosemary Roasted Spicy Nuts are your guaranteed smash hit dish to bring to a party. That is, of course, if you don’t eat them all on the way over. Not for those afraid of fat! But who’s afraid of a bit of fat?
Preheat oven to 350. Place the nuts on an ungreased baking sheet and bake for 15 to 20 minutes till nicelyroasted. Stir and turn to roast evenly.
- 4 lbs raw nuts: Pistachios, Cashews, Peanuts, Pepitas etc . . .
- 6 Tbs. coarsely chopped fresh Rosemary leaves
- 1 ½ to 2 Tsp. cayenne Pepper
- 2 Tbs. brown sugar
- 2 Tbs. kosher salt
- 4 Tbs. butter
Mix the spices and butter together in a bowl and microwave to melt butter. Stir to mix thoroughly.
Toss ½ of the nuts with ½ of the melted spice mixture and return to the oven for 10 more minutes. Repeat with the other ½. Serve warm if you like. Enjoy!
