Crunchy honey-roasted nuts with warm spices for snacking

# What You'll Need:

→ Nuts

01 - 1 cup raw almonds
02 - 1 cup raw cashews
03 - 1 cup raw pecans
04 - 1 cup raw walnuts

→ Seasoning & Sweetener

05 - 3 tbsp honey
06 - 2 tbsp olive oil or melted butter
07 - 1 tsp ground cumin
08 - 1 tsp smoked paprika
09 - 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
10 - 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
11 - 1 tsp sea salt
12 - 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper

# How-To Steps:

01 - Set the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, combine honey with olive oil or melted butter, then add ground cumin, smoked paprika, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, sea salt, and black pepper; stir thoroughly.
03 - Add all nuts to the bowl and toss well to evenly coat with the spiced honey mixture.
04 - Spread the coated nuts evenly in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
05 - Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even roasting and prevent burning; nuts should be golden and fragrant.
06 - Remove from oven and allow nuts to cool completely on the baking sheet; they will crisp as they cool.
07 - Break apart any clusters and transfer the nuts to an airtight container for storage.
