SWEET AND SPICY PECANS

(These nuts are easy to make and good, you can adjust the sweet and spicy to your liking and any type of nuts works). ENJOY!

1 large egg white
2 cups unsalted roasted cashews
2 cups unsalted pecan halves
1/2 cup sugar (Splenda)
1 tsp cumin
3/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp cinnamon
Salt

Heat oven to 250 degrees. Beat the egg white with 1 tbs water in a bowl until foamy. Add the nuts, sugar, cumin, cayenne, cinnamon and 1/2 tsp salt and mix well. Spread the mixture on a parchment lined baking sheet. Bake 40 min. or until the nuts are mostly dry but still slightly sticky.
(2.) Remove the nuts from the oven and stir. Reduce the temp to 200 degrees. Return the nuts to the oven and bake 30 more min. or until crisp. Stir to loosen the nuts from the baking sheet, cool completely on the sheet, then serve.
