1/2 C sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/8 tsp allspice
3 C (12 oz) hazelnuts, almonds or pecans
1 egg white, lightly beaten
Combine sugar and spices. Toss nuts around in egg white until well coated. Then roll in sugar and spice mixture. Spread on a greased cookie sheet. Bake at 350° for 15 minutes, shaking pan a few times. When nuts are removed from oven, use a fork to separate them. Cool on a wire rack.
Yield: spiced nuts to fill (4) 8-ounce jars
Hint: You can use a combination of nuts if you like. These are delicious to serve along with hors d’oeuvres or they can be served with dessert. If placed in decorative jars or tins, they make wonderful gifts.
