NOTES

• The nuts will keep in an airtight container in a cool and dry area for up to 2 weeks.
• The egg white allows the spices and seasoning to stick without the need for additional oil. Don’t skip it!
• For the nuts I used a mix of almonds, macadamia nuts, cashews and petitas, Feel free to use any nuts or seeds that you like, just make sure they are raw.
• Feel free to replace brown sugar with any granulated sweetener of choice.
