Vegan Spiced Nuts

I first whipped up these spiced nuts when I was looking for a cozy snack that wouldn't keep me in the kitchen for hours.
The aroma of cinnamon and cumin wafting through the house is as comforting as it gets.
I discovered that a dash of smoked paprika gives it that little extra something that makes you want to grab another handful.
These nuts are my go-to when I want to share a little homemade love with friends over tea.

Ingredients & Substitutions
Feel free to swap out any nuts you have on hand; just keep the total amount the same. For a kick, toss in a pinch of cayenne – I do that when I'm craving a bit of heat.
Tips & Notes
- •Stir those nuts halfway through baking; trust me, it's worth it for a perfect toast.
- •Let them cool completely on the baking sheet - they crisp up beautifully this way.
- •I store mine in a mason jar on the counter, and they stay crunchy and delicious for days.
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes I'll add a sprinkle of rosemary if I'm in the mood for something herby.
- •If I'm feeling like a little sweetness, I swap the spices for a splash of maple syrup and a dusting of cinnamon.
Storage & Freezing
Store the cooled spiced nuts in an airtight container at room temperature. They will stay fresh for about a week. For longer storage, keep them in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use roasted nuts instead of raw?
Yes, but reduce the baking time to avoid burning them. Roasted nuts won't need much time in the oven.
