Sweet & Spicy Nuts

INGREDIENTS

1 lb. mixed unsalted almonds, pecans, and cashews
1-½ tablespoon. light brown sugar
2 teaspoon. chopped fresh thyme
½ teaspoon. chipotle powder
Kosher salt
1.5 tablespoon. unsalted butter, melted

METHOD

Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat
the oven to 400°F. Spread the nuts on a large rimmed
baking sheet and roast until they start to brown,
about 10 minutes.

While the nuts are roasting, combine the sugar,
thyme, chipotle powder, and 1 teaspoon. salt in a small
bowl. Transfer the nuts to a large bowl, add the
butter, and toss well. Add the sugar mixture and
toss again to coat evenly. Season with more salt to
taste, transfer to small bowls, and serve while
still warm. (These are also good at room temperature
and will keep in an airtight container for at least
3 days.)
