These savory roasted nuts are great to serve at any gathering – all holiday season. Then, you will want to keep them around for everyday snacking. Just be warned these nuts are completely addictive!
You probably already know that I'm all about savory
When we started talking about doing a spiced nuts recipe, of course, I was tasked with coming up with the savory spicy version. When I started working this recipe up I was actually pretty nervous about it.
I really wanted these nuts to be perfect. Because everything is riding on the quality of nuts and just a handful of spices there really isn't a lot of room to disguise a bad spice combination.
I have to say these do not disappoint. I wanted to give you something a little more than just a rosemary roasted nut.
I love blending my own spice mixes so I started to draw inspiration from some of my favorite combos.
You should probably just double the batch right away because you might eat half of them before you have a chance to give them out or bring them to your holiday party. These nuts are a great alternative to all the holiday baked goods.
Made with healthy and flavorful avocado oil instead of butter – so they're even vegan-friendly. Bring a huge batch to work and get everyone off their sugar highs, at least for a little while.
Bring them as a hostess gift or make up a batch to share some holiday cheer with your friends and neighbors.
