If you're a lover of all things barbecue like me, I encourage you to give these mixed nuts a try. They're super easy to make, and taste just amazing.
To make them, just mix up a simple spice mix of paprika, ground cumin, salt, garlic powder, dry mustard, ground ginger, and sugar.
Ground cumin brings the spicy element to the barbecue party, while a mix of brown and granulated sugar brings the sweetness. The cumin combined with paprika brings that little bit of smokiness we love so much.
Ground cumin brings the spicy element to the barbecue party, while a mix of brown and granulated sugar brings the sweetness.
Once the spices are mixed, toss mixed nuts in a bowl with some egg whites. Then sprinkle on the prepared barbecue spices.
The egg whites act like "glue" to make the spiced yumminess stick to the nuts.
Give everything a good stir to get all the nuts coated in the barbecue spices.
Then spread the nuts out in a single layer on a baking sheet.
I like to line my baking sheet with parchment or aluminum foil and very lightly spray it with non-stick cooking spray to make for super easy clean-up.
Pop the baking sheet in the oven and bake the nuts for about 25 minutes.
The egg whites will cook, adhering the barbecue spice mixture really nicely to the mixed nuts.
And that's all there is to whipping up a tasty pan of Barbecue Roasted Mixed Nuts - super easy to make and chock full of spicy-sweet barbecue flavor.
They're so good, you won't be able to stop at a handful! Especially if you're a barbecue lover, like me.
