Step-by-step instructions

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 300°F and prepare baking sheet. I like to line a jelly roll pan with parchment paper, but you can grease your pan if you like.

2. 2

   Combine brown sugar, cinnamon and cayenne, set aside.

3. 3

   In a bowl large enough to accommodate nuts, whisk the egg white; add nuts, cranberries, sprinkle with sugar mixture and toss to coat. Spread onto prepared baking sheet.

4. 4

   Bake for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown, stirring once. Cool completely.

5. 5

   Store in an airtight container up to a week.
