Ingredients
- 1 pound unsalted mixed nuts, preferably raw: almonds, walnut and pecan halves, peanuts

Preparation

Spread the coated nuts in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 5 to 7 minutes; then stir and roast another 5 to 7 minutes, remove to a heat-proof bowl and allow to cool. Break up any nuts that are stuck together.
