It just isn't Christmas at Lori Brouwer's house until these crunchy munchers are in the oven. The wonderful aroma of ginger, cinnamon and nuts fills the kitchen with festivity when I bake this snack, she confirms from Cumberland, British Columbia. Ingredients:
3 egg whites |
2 tablespoons water |
3 cups walnut halves |
2 cups pecan halves |
1 cup whole unblanched almonds |
2 cups sugar |
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon |
2 teaspoons ground ginger |
2 teaspoons grated orange peel |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1 teaspoon ground allspice |
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, beat egg whites and water until frothy. Add nuts; stir gently to coat. Combine the remaining ingredients. Add to nut mixture and stir gently to coat.
2. Spread into two greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pans. Bake, uncovered, at 300° for 20-25 minutes or until lightly browned, stirring every 10 minutes. Cool. Store in an airtight container. Yield: 8 cups.
