Smoky Soy-Glazed Peanuts with Pepitas and Sesame

Ingredients

  • 1 cup150 gDry-roasted peanuts, unsalted
  • ⅓ cup50 gPumpkin seeds (pepitas)
  • 1½ tbsp15 gSesame seeds
  • 2⅛ tsp10 gLow-sodium soy sauce
  • 2⅛ tsp15 gHoney
  • 1⅛ tsp5 gToasted sesame oil
  • 2⅛ tsp5 gPaprika (sweet or smoked)smoked
  • ¾ tsp2 gGarlic powder

Steps

  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C) and line a sheet pan with parchment.
  2. Make the glaze: in a large bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, smoked paprika and garlic powder until smooth.
  3. Add the peanuts and pumpkin seeds to the glaze and toss until every piece is coated.
  4. Sprinkle the sesame seeds over the coated nuts and toss again so they stick.
  5. Spread the mixture in a single layer on the sheet pan and bake for 15 to 18 minutes, stirring halfway, until the glaze is bubbling and the nuts are deep golden.
  6. Cool on the pan for 15 minutes without stirring so the glaze hardens and turns crunchy.
  7. Break into small clusters and serve, or store airtight for up to a week.
