Ingredients

  • 3 cups raw walnuts (pref. halves or large pieces)
  • 1 large egg white
  • 1/4 cup sugar (pref. vanilla sugar)
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp allspice
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 300F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. In a large bowl, lightly beat the egg white until slightly foamy. Add in walnuts and stir with a spatula to coat.

  3. In a small bowl, stir together the sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, allspice and salt. Pour over the nuts and stir with a spatula until very evenly coated.

  4. Spread in a single layer on the baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes.

  5. Slide parchment paper (with nuts still on it) off of the baking sheet and onto a wire rack (or the counter) to cool.

  6. When nuts have cooled, break nut clusters up into a bowl to serve or store at room temperature in an airtight container.

  7. Makes about 3 cups.
