1 tablespoon sugar
2 to 3 teaspoons chipotle powder
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon freshly grated lime zest
1/4 teaspoon granulated garlic
Kosher salt

Vegetable or canola oil, for the baking sheet
1 large egg white
4 cups unsalted raw peanuts
Directions
- For the chipotle spice blend: Mix together the sugar, chipotle powder, coriander, cumin, lime zest, granulated garlic and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in a small bowl and set aside.
- For the nuts: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat a rimmed baking sheet with oil.
