Equipment
- Crock Pot
Ingredients
- 6 c. mixed nuts
- 2 egg whites whisked
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- ¾ c. granulated sugar
- ¾ c. brown sugar
- 1 tsp. kosher salt
- 1 tbsp. cinnamon
Instructions
- Combine whisked egg whites, vanilla, sugar, brown sugar, salt, and cinnamon in a medium mixing bowl, whisking until well mixed.
- Place mixed nuts in a large mixing bowl and pour the sugar mixture over them. Toss the nuts to ensure an even coating.
- Grease the crock pot with nonstick spray and transfer the coated nuts into it.
- Cook on low heat for 2-3 hours, stirring occasionally.
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the nuts in a single layer on the parchment paper. Allow them to cool and set.
- Transfer the cooled nuts to an airtight container for storage, where they can be kept for up to one week.
Notes
- Be sure to stir the nuts in the crockpot occasionally to ensure they cook and coat evenly.
- When spreading the nuts on the parchment-lined baking sheet, try to separate them as much as possible to prevent clumping as they cool.
- Make sure to whisk the egg whites until they are frothy and slightly thickened before adding the other ingredients. This will help create a better coating for the nuts.
