Cinnamon Sugar Nuts

This is a winter favorite great around the holidays and is perfect for any party snack. I enjoy making a large batch and eating them as a sweet and protein filled snack. If you do the same make sure to store them in an air tight container, but in all honesty they most likely won't last that long!
