For Christmas this year I made several versions of Sweet & Spicy Nuts and they were a big hit. The original recipe is here.

I made 3 different versions. In two versions, I used a prepared curry powder because I discovered that I did not have any cumin. One of those batches I made spicy with some extra cayenne pepper. I really liked this version.

The third version I made was vegan. I used coconut oil in place of butter, and for spices I added similar spices I used for the Golden Milk recipe (cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, turmeric, black pepper). I also added a couple of tablespoons of unsweetened shredded coconut to the nuts before adding the syrup and baking.

Sweet, spicy, crunchy, and delicious! Bonus – they’re super easy to make, too!

These will make a wonderful New Year’s Eve snack, too. Why not prepare a batch today?
