Make Ahead Tips
These spiced nuts can be made up to a day ahead.
I have substituted the sugar for a few tablespoons of Pure maple syrup. It adds richness and depth of flavor.
These are easy to make and earned rave reviews from family and friends. I followed another reviewers suggestion and significantly decreased the quantity of sugar to a couple of tablespoons. Used the spiced nuts as a garnish for Spinach Soup with Indian Spices and holiday noshing.
Simple and delicious! I'd like to try it again without the sugar, and come up with something spicy and savory.
I made these using home made garam masala. I made the night before and then re-heated the next day before the dinner party. They were a big hit and we are still snacking on them. They aren't to spicy - but they still have a kick.
