Sweet & Salty Nut Mix

Dairy FreeGluten FreeVegetarian Ivy Larson
Jump to Recipe

This savory and sweet spiced nuts recipe is my new favorite go-to party snack. For years I have been making my clean candied pecans recipe (also made without refined sugar) and I loved it so much I just never bothered to try and come up with anything different. But adding the dried fruit and herbs and using a combination of different nuts makes this one a bit more interesting. I just made the recipe last week for the cheese board I am planning to serve with our Easter dinner this Sunday but everyone loved the nuts so much that I now have none left! Luckily it only takes 7 minutes to whip together a new batch so I am making more —and hiding them (wink)–this afternoon.

But whether you are having a full-blown party, a family holiday get together or just some friends over to hang out for drinks and snacks, this is THE party nut mix to make. No matter what the occasion, you can’t go wrong with this one. It’s the perfect combination of savory/ sweet and salty. It’s also got to be one of the easiest recipes in the world. And since you can make it weeks in advance, it’s always great for entertaining. (Note: if you make it in advance you’ll just want to store it in the freezer in an airtight container.) 

Pin this graphic for later!

      Hi Laura, I’m so sorry for just now getting back to you. Hmmm…you might want to try just a bit of neutral-flavored (but unrefined!) oil, such as unrefined macadamia nut oil (maybe 2 tablespoons?) I think this should help the other ingredients stick. Please let me know if you give it a try! I would love to give an egg-free option on the recipe if it turns out well 😉

          Hi Lynn,

          Hmmmm….I’m not totally sure the chia egg will work for this particular recipe. You might want to try 4 teaspoons of coconut oil instead? That might work!!
