Packed with protein and full of flavor, they’re my go-to whenever a chip craving strikes.

Ingredients
1 egg white
2-3 Tbsp. dry BBQ seasoning
2-3 Tbsp. sugar-free Maple syrup (I used Birch Bender’s)
1/8 tsp. cayenne
1 cup almonds
1 cup cashews
1-1/2 cups pecans
1/4 cup Swerve brown sugar
1-1/2 tsp. salt
Instructions
Heat oven to 325 degrees. In a bowl, combine all the nuts. You can use any combination of nuts that are your favorite. I used pecans, cashews and whole almonds.
Whisk the egg white until it is foamy. Stir in the dry BBQ seasoning, cayenne pepper and maple syrup. Whisk until combined well.
Add the nuts and stir, ensuring all the nuts are evenly coated.
Add the Swerve brown sugar and toss the nuts.
Spread on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Roast 15 minutes, then stir. Roast another 15 minutes.
Remove from the oven and sprinkle with salt. Allow to cool. Store in an airtight container.
