    How to Make Spiced Candied Walnuts

    1. Oven Prep

    Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C, gas mark 3). Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

    2. Egg White Mixture

    In a mixing bowl, beat the egg white and water together until frothy.

    3. Spice Infusion

    Gradually whisk in the granulated sugar, brown sugar, kosher salt, cinnamon, coriander, and chipotle chili powder until well combined.

    4. Coating the Walnuts

    Gently fold the walnut halves into the spice mixture, ensuring each nut is evenly coated.

    5. Baking the Walnuts

    Arrange the coated walnuts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.

    6. Stirring and Final Toasting

    Give the walnuts a stir for even toasting and continue baking for another 10-15 minutes until they are golden, fragrant, and appear dry.

    7. Cooling

    Remove from the oven and let the walnuts cool on the baking sheet. Once manageable, break apart any clusters.

    8. Chopping for Recipes

    If using in a recipe, such as a salad, coarsely chop 1 cup (125 g) of the nuts.

    9. Storing and Serving Suggestions

    Store the remaining candied walnuts in an airtight container at room temperature. Enjoy as a snack, sprinkle over oatmeal, or add to your favorite dessert for a sweet and spicy crunch.
