Sweet, Salty, and Spicy Party Nuts

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Sweet, Salty, and Spicy Party Nuts.

1. Step 1

   Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with aluminum foil, giving it a light spritz of cooking spray for easy cleanup.

2. Step 2

   In a spacious mixing bowl, gather your walnut halves, pecan halves, dry roasted almonds, and dry roasted cashews.

3. Step 3

   Sprinkle in the salt, black pepper, ground cumin, and cayenne pepper, then toss everything together until each nut is beautifully coated in the flavorful blend.

4. Step 4

   In a small saucepan, combine white sugar, water, and butter, heating over medium until the butter melts and the sugar dissolves, which should take about a minute.

5. Step 5

   Drizzle this luscious melted mixture over your nut medley, stirring gently to ensure every nut is enveloped in that sweet, buttery goodness.

6. Step 6

   Spread the coated nuts in a single layer on your prepared baking sheet, allowing them to bask in the oven's warmth.

7. Step 7

   Bake for 10 minutes, then give them a gentle stir to coat them in the warm syrup, spreading them out again in a single layer.

8. Step 8

   Return them to the oven for an additional 6 minutes, or until they achieve a sticky, roasted perfection.
