Maple Spice Nuts - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 teaspoons vegetable oil
    1/2 lb whole almond, blanched (1 1/2 cups)
    1/2 lb pecans (2 cups)
    1/2 lb peanuts, roasted unsalted (1 1/2 cups)
    1 1/4 teaspoons salt
    1 teaspoon ground coriander
    3/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
    1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (depending on your taste)
    1/4 cup maple syrup
Preparation
    Heat oven to 350 degrees.
    Heat oil in large skillet (I use cast iron) over high heat. Add almonds; saute, stirring 2 to 3 minutes, until almonds begin to brown. Add pecans; saute 1 minute. Add peanuts; saute 1 minute more.
    Lower heat to medium-high. Sprinkle nuts with salt, coriander, black pepper and cayenne pepper; toss to coat nuts.
    Pour maple syrup over nuts, saute until syrup is evaporated and nuts are lightly caramelized, 1 minute. Spoon into 15 x 10 x 1 inch baking pan or cookie sheet.
    Bake in 350 degree oven, tossing occasionally, for 30 minutes or until no longer sticky. Cool completely.
