How to Make Spicy Roasted Party Nuts
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  2. Combine the nuts in a large bowl. Toss together 2 cups of whole almonds, 2 cups of pecan or walnut halves, and 1 ½ cups of pepitas along with 2 tablespoons of finely chopped fresh rosemary.
  3. Whisk the seasoning mixture in a separate bowl. Combine 2 tablespoons of maple syrup, 2 tablespoons of melted unsalted butter, 1 ½ teaspoons of kosher salt, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and ¼ teaspoon of cayenne pepper until smooth.
  4. Pour the syrup mixture over your nut blend. Gently stir until every nut is beautifully coated.

  6. Bake the nuts for 15-20 minutes, tossing occasionally until they are golden and fragrant.
  7. Cool before serving to allow them to crisp up.
