Spice Mixed Nuts
from REAL SIMPLE™


Hands-On Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour, 30 minutes (includes cooling)
Makes 6 cups

Ingredients

2 large egg whites
2/3 cup sugar
2 1/2 tablespoons Old Bay® Seasoning
1 tablespoon chili powder
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
6 cups mixed unsalted raw nuts (such as walnuts, pecans, cashews, and pistachios)
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted
1/3 cup finely grated Parmesan (about 1 1/2 ounces)

Directions

Heat oven to 300° F. Using an electric mixer, beat the egg whites until foamy. Gradually add the sugar, beating until a loose meringue forms. Beat in the Old Bay Seasoning, chili powder, Worcestershire sauce, cayenne, and salt.

Mix in the nuts and butter, then mix in the Parmesan. Divide the nuts between parchment-lined rimmed baking sheets, spreading them in a single layer. Bake, switching the baking sheets halfway through, until golden brown, 30 to 40 minutes; let cool.

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
