Sugar-free candied hazelnuts
Ingredients (for several servings)
- 300 g toasted and peeled hazelnuts
- egg whites from ½ large egg
- 1 tsp dried mint
- 1 tsp ground ginger
- Salt (skip in case of hypertension or fluid retention)
Method
- 1. Beat the egg whites with a fork.
- 2. Put the hazelnuts in a bowl and add a bit of egg whites. Mix until fully coated. Add just enough egg whites to moisten the hazelnuts so that the seasonings stick well.
- 3. Add a pinch of salt and sprinkle a generous amount of mint and ginger.
- 4. Mix well together and spread the hazelnuts onto an oven tray.
- 5. Bake at 160°C for five or six minutes so that the egg whites dry out.
- 6. Remove from the oven, let cool and serve.
