Ingredients

  • 2 cups raw cashews
  • 2 cups raw almonds
  • 1 egg white
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 300°F (148°C) and line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper. In a small bowl, toss the sugar, salt and cinnamon to combine and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, use a whisk to beat the egg white until it becomes frothy.
  • Add the nuts and sugar mixture and stir until the nuts are coated evenly. Spread the nuts onto the baking sheet in a single layer.
  • Bake for 25 minutes, stir and continue to bake for an additional 20 minutes or until the nuts are lightly browned. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the nuts to cool completely before transferring them to a serving bowl.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 10 days.
