Maple Spiced Nuts

Here is yet another spiced nut recipe that is a great complement for cocktails. I found this in GQ awhile back.

Ingredients

• 1 lb. mixed unsalted nuts
• 1/4 cup maple syrup
• 3 Tbsp. olive oil
• 1 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
• 1 tsp. crushed red-pepper flakes
• 1/2 tsp. smoked paprika
• 1/2 tsp. ground cumin

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350. In a medium bowl, combine nuts, maple syrup, and olive oil; toss to coat. 
2. Place in a large cast-iron skillet or rimmed baking tray. Roast in oven until nuts are evenly toasted, about 20 minutes. 
3. Remove nuts from oven and place in a large bowl. Add remaining ingredients and toss to coat evenly.

Serves a lot. Eat.
