Yummy!!!!!
Cumin and chili.. yum! I can’t wait to see the next recipe!
I need to post that recipe soon. I’ll have to make another batch of these those. I could not resist munching on them until they were all gone.
Will definitely be making these. I do something similar to pecans but I love pepitas.
I would love to have your recipe for the pecans. Pecans are my favorite nut by far!
I don’t really measure since I have been making them so long. Just a little sugar, cayenne, cumin and salt.
Any egg white to make them stick? Or just oil?
I don’t use either one. I just put it all in a large skillet and keep tossing until the sugar starts to melt and pour out onto nonstick foil. It only takes the slightest bit of sugar to melt and hold the seasonings on. I’ll make it soon and measure and do a post if you would like.
That would be great! I imagine they would make a good Christmas gift.
It will be my pleasure!
