Ingredients
The base of my recipe are cashews, almonds, peanuts, walnuts, macadamias, sunflower seeds and Co. Best natural – not already roasted and salted. To refine, you need spice mixtures such as curry or Ras El Hanout, alternatively single spices like paprika and chili.
The savory snack is really special: The nuts are salty caramelized, so it's an exciting flavor combination of sea salt, sugar and honey. The caramelization also makes the consistency unique.
As already written, you have many refinement options for homemade roasted nuts with honey. I usually prepare two to three alternatives from the recipe. You prepare them all in the same way - for example mixed with honey, sugar, oil and salt. However, one part then becomes, for example, rosemary nuts, and one part becomes honey mustard nuts.
How to make the Honey Roasted Nuts
Let's get started with this easy and quick recipe. Preheat the oven to 340°F/170°C. Heat honey and sugar in a small saucepan and dissolve.
Now, place nuts and seeds in a large bowl. Add oil, sugar-honey mix, salt and spices; mix everything very well so that the nuts are completely coated. Then, spread nuts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Roast for about 15 minutes, turning once or twice. They will crisp up nicely when cooled after baking. Enjoy your homemade snack!
