This recipe for Ginger Spice Mixed Nuts is a healthy and tasty snacktime treat.

Ingredients

4 tsp olive oil
1 Tbsp powdered ginger
1 tsp garam masala
4 Tbsp sugar
2 Tbsp honey
1/2 tsp salt
2 cups unsalted mixed nuts

Directions

Line a large platter or baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper, and set aside.

In a skillet (or nonstick pan), heat oil, ginger and garam masala over low heat until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Stir in sugar, honey and salt, and mix well. Stir in nuts, and toss to coat.

Raise heat to low-medium, and cook until the sauce begins to caramelize, 2-5 minutes. If you have a light colored pan, the sauce should be amber; if it's a dark pan, you can't see easily, so go by consistency. You're aiming for an almost peanut brittle consistency.

Spread the nuts on the parchment to cool. They taste best after they've cooled, so you have to be patient.
