Hazelnut Dukkah

6 - Healthy snacks & desserts, Healthy Snack or Drink, Other

Ingredients

1/4 cup toasted hazelnuts

1/4 teaspoon whole toasted cumin seeds

1/2 teaspoon whole toasted coriander seeds

1/2 teaspoon sumac

Pinch ground cinnamon

Pinch kosher salt

Description

Makes a great garnish for green beans, or use it to coat fish, chicken, or meat before cooking, or dip bread in it after a dunk in olive oil as an appetizer.

Or sprinkle over Asian pears (with a squeeze of lemon) for a healthy snack (pictured).

Directions

Combine all ingredients in a mortar and pestle and coarsely crush (or roughly chop it all with a knife).

Notes

Pepita Dukkah
This allergy friendly version swaps out nuts for pepitas; finish with a squeeze of lime for some zesty cool-ranch kick: place 2 tablespoons salted roasted pepitas in a resealable plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin. Add 3/4 teaspoon chili powder and sprinkle the mixture over the "chips."
