Roasted Almonds with a citrus kick! Perhaps needs a little more zest and/or cayenne pepper. (Adapted from https://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/orange-chipotle-spiced-pecan-mix & https://jessicalevinson.com/orange-scented-nuts)
Preheat oven to 225 degrees F
Combine first 3 ingredients in a medium bowl; stir with a whisk.
Stir in almonds.
Combine sugar, salt, and pepper, then add to almond mixture; toss well.
Spread mixture in a single layer on a baking pan coated with parchment and cooking spray.
Bake at 225° for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
Remove from oven; cool completely.
Most recipes recommend cayenne pepper; chile powder didn’t have any kick, so I’d try cayenne, chipotle (or some additional spices) next time.
Can be stored in an airtight container for up to one week.
