Sugar & Spice Walnuts

Add to salads, plain yogurt, on top of ice cream or as a garnish for fall soups. They’re also delicious all by themselves, but I don’t need to tell you that. CLICK HERE or the highlighted products within the recipe to order products suggested for recipe.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound walnut halves
  • 2/3 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1/3 cup white sugar
  • 1 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice or plain cinnamon or a combo of your favorites
  • 1 egg white room temperature
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil Marketplace balsamic vinegar purchase here (try Maple or Cinnamon Pear)
  • oil for lightly greasing cookie sheet

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 300F.
  • Combine sugars, salt and spice in a small mixing bow, mixing until ingredients are fully incorporated and mixture is clump-free.
  • In a large bowl, vigorously whisk together egg white and balsamic vinegar until frothy but not stiff, about 45 seconds – 1 minute.
  • Add walnuts to egg mixture and gently fold together until walnuts are well coated.
  • Using your hands, sprinkle sugar over walnuts and mix after every 1/4 cup or so until all the sugar has been added and walnuts are evenly coated.
  • Spread nuts into a single layer on a cookie sheet, either lined with parchment paper or very lightly greased with oil.
  • Bake for 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes for even cooking.
  • Remove from oven and separate nuts as they begin to cool. If baked on an unlined, greased cookie sheet, transfer nuts to a sheet of wax paper before they cool completely (within 5 minutes of removing pan from oven), otherwise they’ll end up sticking to the pan forever.
  • Store in air-tight containers in the refrigerator to maximize freshness.
