Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 tbsp honey
  • 2 tsp hot sauce
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 3/4 cup almonds
  • 1 cup cashews
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds
  • 1/4 cup sunflower seeds

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, mix oil, honey, hot sauce, paprika and salt until well mixed.
  2. Add the nuts and seeds to a large mixing bowl.
  3. Pour the dressing over the nuts and mix until all the nuts and seeds are well coated.
  4. Line the basket of your Air fryer with parchment paper. Transfer the nuts to the basket and place in a single layer.
  5. Air fry at 300 degree Fahrenheit for 10 minutes, stirring in between until the nuts are roasted.
  6. Remove the Air fryer basket. Transfer the nuts to a plate and let it cool. Break the nuts into clusters.
  7. Store in an air tight container. Makes 2 1/2 to 3 cups.

Notes

  • Storage – Keep it at room temperature in an air tight container up to a week.
  • Variations
    • Use more hot sauce or paprika to increase the heat.
    • Switch up the nuts with pecans, walnuts or peanuts.
    • Add raisins for a trail mix.
  • Nuts roast fast and since there are so many Air fryer models and sizes, it’s better to keep an eye on the time. Check whether the nuts are roasted at 7 minute mark and increase the cook time by 1 or 2 minutes.
