Ingredients

• 2 cups Mixed nuts (almonds, cashews, pecans, walnuts, or any mix you prefer)
• 0.5 cups Sugar
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger, finely grated
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 1 tablespoon Water

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

Spread the mixed nuts evenly on the prepared baking sheet and roast them in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, stirring halfway through. Keep an eye on them to avoid burning. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool slightly.

Step 3

In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the sugar, honey, finely grated ginger, butter, ground cinnamon, salt, and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring frequently until the mixture comes to a simmer.

Step 4

Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until it thickens slightly and forms a smooth glaze.

Step 5

Remove the saucepan from the heat and immediately add the roasted nuts to the saucepan. Stir thoroughly to coat the nuts evenly in the ginger glaze.

Step 6

Spread the glazed nuts in a single layer back onto the prepared baking sheet. Allow them to cool completely at room temperature. As they cool, the glaze will harden and stick to the nuts.

Step 7

Once cooled, break apart any large clusters, transfer the nuts to an airtight container, and store at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
