Sweet And Spicy Macadamia Nuts Recipe
Looking for a great travel snack? These delicious, sweet, and spicy macadamia nuts are crazy good, and the very best way to enjoy them is out of the oven while they are still warm.
I swear, I have never tasted yummier macadamias! While these do make a great snack any time or place, eating them warm out of the oven is an other-worldly experience. Who knew warm macadamias were so good??
The truth is, you’ll have to be careful you don’t overeat on these. They get kind of addictive. And as with many of my recipes, the amounts are totally adjustable. Want them sweeter? Add more sweetener. Like them less spice? Use just a pinch! You can try these before baking them to make sure you’ve got the flavor just right. The measurements here are just a jumping-off point.
Adjust, bake, and enjoy!!
About The Ingredients
Macadamia nuts – I used salted macadamia nuts, but you can opt for unsalted if you can find them.
Virgin coconut oil – In liquid state.
Cayenne pepper – This is totally adjustable to your tastes. If you want things spicier, feel free to add more to your liking. You can sprinkle it on after cooking if you wish.
Pure liquid stevia – You can also use 2 tsp. powdered Sucanat, or 2 tsp. powdered coconut sugar.
How To Make Sweet And Spicy Macadamia Nuts
Preheat oven to 350 F.
Combine all ingredients in a medium mixing bowl and mix well with a wooden spoon or your hands.1 cup macadamia nuts,2 tbsp. virgin coconut oil,¼ tsp. cayenne pepper,8 drops pure liquid stevia

Cool enough to be able to touch them without burning yourself and enjoy.
Storing Sweet And Spicy Macadamia Nuts
Store these in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week.
Freezing Sweet And Spicy Macadamia Nuts
To keep these longer, freezing is fine. However, you’ll want to pack them well. Don’t freeze for longer than 4 months.

If you had these in the fridge or freezer and want to warm them up again before eating them, you can give them a second quick roast or even toss them in a skillet with a very small spritz of oil.
