Notes

  • Add a pinch of chili powder or black pepper for an extra kick of heat.
  • Incorporate olive oil or melted butter into the egg white mixture to elevate the nuts' richness.
  • Opt for raw nuts rather than pre-roasted options to avoid added oils and preservatives.
  • This recipe works well with all types of nuts, including pistachios, Brazil, and macadamia nuts.
  • Use this Easy Keto Maple Syrup recipe as a substitute for store-bought brands.
  • For a purely savory version of these spiced nuts, simply skip the erythritol.
  • Replace the cardamom with pumpkin pie spice or allspice for a warm, autumn-inspired flavor.
  • Add a drizzle of sugar-free dark chocolate syrup to the cooled nuts for a decadent treat.
  • Create a low-carb trail mix by combining these Spiced Nuts with unsweetened coconut flakes, pumpkin seeds, and sugar-free chocolate chips.
