Savory Spiced Nuts - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 cup walnuts
1 cup pecans
1/2 cup unroasted peanuts
2 1/2 tablespoons peanut oil
2 teaspoons dried rosemary
1 tablespoon vegan sugar (or granulated sugar)
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons mild chili powder
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper (optional)

Preparation

Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
Place nuts in a mixing bowl.
Heat the oil in a small skillet with the rosemary until it becomes aromatic, then pour over nuts, and stir to coat evenly.
Blend the sugar, cumin, chili powder, salt, black pepper, and red pepper together in a small dish and sprinkle over the nuts, and toss to coat well.
Spread the nuts on a non-stick baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the nuts are toasted, stirring nuts once during the cooking time.
Allow to cool, then store in an airtight container.
