Tex-Mex Party Nuts
These make a great gift and they are pretty quick to make. I like to use the Planter Deluxe Pistachio mix that includes cashews and almonds.
Ingredients
- 1 9.5 to 11.5 oz. can salted mixed nuts
- 1 Tablespoon butter melted
- 2 teaspoons chili powder
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground red caynne pepper
- 2 Tablespoons sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300°.
- In a medium bowl, mix nuts and butter until nuts are coated.
- In a small bowl mix the remaining ingredients except sugar, sprinkle over nuts. Stir until nuts are completely coated.
- Spread in single layer in 15" x 10" x 1" pan. Bake uncovered for about 10 minutes or until nuts are toasted.
- Return to medium bowl. While nuts are still hot, sprinkle with sugar and toss to coat.
- Cool completely, about 1 hour. Store in airtight container at room temperature up to 3 weeks.
