What a great recipe and video. It worked beautifully. One tip (learned the wrong way) scoop the nuts onto the pan. I guess my egg ratio was a bit off and too much egg meant cluster of nuts sticking together.🤦
If I want to make savory and not sugary do I just use the savory seasoning and leave out the sugars? What do I replace all that sugar with?
Making now! Thank you!!!!
Farenheit or centigrades??!
What adjustments do I need to do if I want to use it for sunflower seeds?
300 in F or C?
I made these for friends. They were a big hit.
i wanted to see if i could roast chickpeas this way instead of nuts because they're so much less expensive. it worked out really well! the only difference was the cook time. they took almost two hours since they're more moist but i ended up with lovely, crunchy, delicious spiced chickpeas. love this method, will make it again in an even larger quantity!
Looks delicious but why no link for the recipe?
Make your own mayo then use your egg whites for the nuts 🙂
Yay! Good to see Elle again!
nahh… sugar on eveything
Is the egg white mixture then whipped or mixed some? I see similar recipes whip the egg whites a bit to lighten them up some. Not to the merengue point tho.
the nuts were black on the bottom they were no good the video showed and said turn the pan halfway through. my wife said I should have flipped the nuts over not just turn the tray like the video showed. this is not a good video at all for people trying this recipe the first time its my first thumbs down ever it just made me mad
Yay Elle!
Shouldn't the nuts be soaked first?
Will egg white work with chickpea?
oof, that's a lot of sugar lol
Superbowl party mix.
Cool, would you recommend using the convection bake, or convection roast settings?
Thank you Elle!
We need more of Elle Simone!!
Or just put them in a sock and wait till they dry
Would love a vegan version.
this is similar to my recipe. I whip the egg white first so it's fluffy and more volume. I also add some cooking oil so the nuts have a bigger roasted flavor. Then I drizzle some honey before mixing.
This looks dangerous. I’d eat the whole pound in 15 minutes. Yes, I mean dangerously delicious.
