The Masala Mix got rave reviews because it had a subtle kick. The masala is fragrant, but not overpowering, and the candied ginger and mango are spicy and sweet!
Masala Honey Trail Mix
For the nuts:
6 tbs butter
7 tbs honey
3 tbs vanilla extract
2 pounds almonds
1 pound walnut halves
1.5 tbs garam masala
Kosher salt, to taste
For the trail mix:
1 pound dried mangoes, cut into 1.5 inch cubes
0.75 pounds candied ginger, cut into 1.5 inch cubes
1 pound dried cranberries
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a large pot, melt butter over low heat.
- Mix the honey and vanilla into the melted butter. (Hint: Use a silicone spatula, as this will get a bit sticky.)
- Add the nuts to the pot and toss to coat thoroughly.
- Sprinkle the spices over the nuts, then toss again to coat.
- Spread the nuts in a single layer on a foil-lined sheet pan and place in oven for 7 - 10 minutes. **Don't walk away from them; check them often. You'll be able to smell when they're done.**
- Remove the tray to a cooling rack and use the spatula to move the pecans around so they don't stick to the foil.
- If the nuts are a little oily, place nuts in a clean paper bag and toss to draw away oil. You can use a little confectioner's sugar too.
- When the nuts are cool, mix in the fruit. Scoop 1/4 cup into smaller bags. Enjoy!
