Sugar and Spicy Nuts

Sugar and Spicy Nuts servings: 5 CUPS ¾ cup granulated sugar 1 tablespoon kosher salt 1 tablespoon chile powder 2 teaspoons cinnamon 2 teaspoons cayenne pepper 1 large egg white 2 cups raw cashews, 9 ounces 2 cups raw almonds, 9 ounces Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Coat a rimmed baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. In a small mixing bowl, whisk the sugar, salt, chile powder, cinnamon, and cayenne pepper. In a large mixing bowl beat the egg white until light and frothy. Add the cashews, almonds, and dry ingredients. Toss until all the nuts are coated. Spread out the nuts on the baking sheet and bake for about 45 minutes. Half way through the cooking time stir all the nuts around. Continue baking until browned. Let the nuts cool on the baking sheet but remember to stir occasionally or they will get stuck to the baking sheet and other nuts. Note: You can make these two days ahead of time but keep in an airtight container.
