Sweet, salty and spicy these rosemary chili nuts are utterly addictive. I added some juicy flame raisins for the perfect combination of flavours. Fresh rosemary gives them a wonderful aroma.

These roasted nuts are perfect for parties, Christmas, New Year or even as a simple on-the-go snack. You can even bake a batch or two to give as gifts during the holiday season.

You can use any combination of nuts for this recipe, but my personal favourite is almonds, cashews and pecans in equal amount. I also add some pumpkin seeds for additional crunch which you can substitute with sunflower seeds.

The chili flakes are added last so you can make these rosemary chili nuts as spicy as you like.

This recipe is extremely easy to make. There are only 5 minutes of prep and 12-15 minutes of cooking time. This nut combo can be made ahead and kept in an airtight container for a few weeks.

If you prefer a deeper BBQ flavour, why not try me Smoky Roasted Cashews? They are equally moreish. Perfect when having a drink with friends, I also like to sprinkle them on salads as they contain protein and healthy fats.
