  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 3 cups walnut halves

Instructions

  • PREHEAT oven to 300F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment.
  • WHISK egg white in a large bowl until foamy. Whisk in 1/3 cup sugar, cinnamon and salt. Add walnuts and stir until coated. Scrape onto prepared sheet. Spread nuts out in a single layer.
