SWEET AND SALTY NUTS AND CRANBERRIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• In a bowl toss the almonds, butter, sugar, and Cajun seasoning (you may substitute 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper and 1/4 teaspoon white pepper for the Cajun seasoning).
• Pour the nut mixture onto a rimmed baking sheet. Roast, stirring occasionally until nuts are one shade darker - about 25 minutes. *Note - the time may be less if you are using almonds that are already roasted.
• Remove from oven and sprinkle with salt.
• Set aside to cool.
• When cool toss the nuts with the cranberries.
• This will last 1 week at room temperature or 3 weeks in the freezer.
