Slow Cooker Candied Nuts

Super Bowl Sunday is just a few weeks away and we are already planning what will be on the menu. We like to have snacks that can sit out all day for everyone. Salty and sweet with just a little bit of spice, these candied nuts are the perfect snack. They are great to tide you over before a meal or as a treat, late in the day.

These candied nuts are really simple to make. The slow cooker does all the work for you. You do need to make them the day before you need them, so that they have a chance to dry overnight. I like to use a mix of nuts for the variety, but you can use whatever nuts you prefer. Almonds are really delicious, all by themselves.

These candied nuts will last up to one month when stored in an airtight container in a cool, dark place or up to six months in the freezer.
