Ginger-Spiced Walnuts
- 1 pound unsalted raw walnut halves (about 4 cups)
- 1/4 cup corn oil or other mild-tasting oil
- 1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground crystallized ginger
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
- Combine the walnuts and oil in a 3 1/2- to 4-quart slow cooker, stirring to coat.
- Add the brown sugar, stirring to coat evenly.
- Cover and cook on High for 15 minutes.
- Adjust the setting to Low and cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the nuts are coated with a crisp glaze, about 2 hours.
- In a small bowl, combine the ginger, cinnamon, and allspice and sprinkle over the nuts, stirring to coat evenly.
- Spread the nuts out in a single layer on a baking sheet and let cool completely before serving.
- These nuts will keep in the refrigerator, tightly covered, for up to a month or in the freezer for 2 to 3 months.
