Ranch Roasted Nuts — The Low-Carb Snack That Actually Stops the 3PM Brain Crash
Adapted from That Low Carb Life. Original recipe: https://thatlowcarblife.com/ranch-roasted-nuts/My version uses pecans, walnuts, and cashews. I also leave out the chives since I don't keep them on hand — still delicious without them.
Prep Time 12 minutes mins
Cook Time 20 minutes mins
- 2 cups pecans
- 2 cups walnuts
- 1 cup cashews
- 1/4 cup avocado oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp dried parsley
- 1 tsp dried dill
- 1 tsp salt
Preheat your oven to 325°F.
Add the nuts, avocado oil, and all the spices directly into a large mixing bowl. Stir well until every nut is evenly coated.
Pour onto a large rimmed baking sheet and spread into a single even layer. Don't pile them up — you want them roasting, not steaming.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes. Set a timer and don't skip the stirring — it prevents burning on the bottom and keeps the seasoning evenly distributed. They're done when they smell toasty and have a slightly deeper color.
Let them cool on the pan — they crisp up as they cool. Once fully cooled, transfer to an airtight container or glass jar.
Storage: Keeps at room temperature for up to two weeks. I keep mine in a glass jar on the counter.
