Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a large bowl, combine the mixed nuts and set aside.
-
In a small bowl, mix together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt until well combined.
-
In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, add the sugar and spice mixture to the pan, stirring constantly until the sugars have dissolved and the mixture is bubbling slightly.
-
Remove the pan from the heat and quickly stir in the bourbon. Be careful, as the mixture may bubble up when you add the bourbon.
-
Pour the hot sugar and spice mixture over the mixed nuts and stir until all the nuts are evenly coated.
-
Spread the coated nuts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the nuts are golden brown and fragrant.
-
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the nuts to cool completely before serving.
