Roasted Almonds with a citrus kick! Perhaps needs a little more zest and/or cayenne pepper. (Adapted from https://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/orange-chipotle-spiced-pecan-mix & https://jessicalevinson.com/orange-scented-nuts)
Prep Time30 minsCook Time1 hrTotal Time1 hr 30 mins
Ingredients
1 tbsp grated orange rind
1 tbsp fresh orange juice
1 large egg white
2 cups raw almonds
1 tbsp dark brown sugar
½ tsp kosher salt
½ tsp Santa Cruz chile powder
Directions
1Preheat oven to 225 degrees F
2Combine first 3 ingredients in a medium bowl; stir with a whisk.
4Combine sugar, salt, and pepper, then add to almond mixture; toss well.
5Spread mixture in a single layer on a baking pan coated with parchment and cooking spray.
6Bake at 225° for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
7Remove from oven; cool completely.
Notes
8Most recipes recommend cayenne pepper; chile powder didn’t have any kick, so I’d try cayenne, chipotle (or some additional spices) next time.
