Instructions:
1. Preheat the Oven:
- Warm the oven up to 150°C/300°F. Place baking paper on the bottom of a pan.
2. Prepare the Nuts:
- Put the mixed nuts, erythritol, cinnamon, and salt in a big bowl and mix them together. Toss the nuts around to cover them all.
3. Whisk the Egg White:
- Whisk the egg white in a different bowl until it gets foamy. Mix in the vanilla extract and water with a whisk until everything is well mixed.
4. Coat the Nuts:
- Pour the egg white mix over the nuts and mix them around until they are all covered.
5. Bake:
- Place the nuts in a single layer on the baking sheet that has been prepared. Stir the nuts every 10 minutes while they bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crisp.
6. Cool:
- Let the nuts cool all the way down on the baking sheet. More crunch will come from letting them cool.
7. Break into Clusters:
- After the nuts have cooled, break them up into groups. They can be kept in a container that keeps air out for later eating.
8. Enjoy:
- You can eat these Low-Carb Candied Nuts as a snack on their own or on top of yogurt, salads, or sweets. A lovely gift is also possible with them.
