I love my 365 crockpot recipes! And she had one for wasabi nuts and another for spicy nut mixture (which was pretty timid but tasty and went fast at a party i went to). I tried the wasabi recipe with horseradish powder, but didn’t really get any bang, but that made me think about my spicy almond recipe… I had said last year, that that was the last year making them cause they filled the house with charred spices and just ick…

Alas the crockpot came to save the day and hubby’s dad’s birthday!

Spicy Almonds – redux – via crock pot

Ingredients

• 2 tsp garlic salt
• 2 tsp cayene
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp paprika
• 1 tsp sea salt
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 2 cups of almonds

Preparation:

Spray crockpot (i like to use 6 quart) with pam.

Add spices to crock pot – stir to combine with pam.

Add nuts to crock pot, sprinkle with spicy olive oil, stir till nuts are coated with the spice mixture.

Cook on high for 2-3 hours, stirring nuts every 20-45 minutes. The longs they sit in once place the darker/more charred they will get.

Cool on aluminum foil.

Store in an air tight container.

Enjoy!
