- Pour the dressing over the nuts and mix until all the nuts and seeds are well coated.
- Line the basket of your Air fryer with parchment paper. Transfer the nuts to the basket and place in a single layer.
- Air fry at 300 degree Fahrenheit for 10 minutes, stirring in between until the nuts are roasted.
- Remove the Air fryer basket. Transfer the nuts to a plate and let it cool. Break the nuts into clusters.
- Store in an air tight container. Makes 2 1/2 to 3 cups.
Notes
- Storage - Keep it at room temperature in an air tight container up to a week.
- Variations -
- Use more hot sauce or paprika to increase the heat.
- Switch up the nuts with pecans, walnuts or peanuts.
- Add raisins for a trail mix.
- Nuts roast fast and since there are so many Air fryer models and sizes, it's better to keep an eye on the time. Check whether the nuts are roasted at 7 minute mark and increase the cook time by 1 or 2 minutes.
