Steps:
- 1. Preheat the oven to 300 to 325°F. Melt the butter in a small saucepan; remove from heat. Add the raw peanuts and toss to coat evenly with the melted butter.
- 2. In a small bowl, mix together the chili powder, cumin, white pepper, salt, oregano, and cayenne; set aside.
- 3. Spread the peanuts in a single layer on a large sheet pan and lightly toast in the oven for about 10 minutes, shaking the pan occasionally.
- 4. Transfer the peanuts into a large bowl and coat with the dry ingredients. Mix in the cherries until uniformly blended.
- 5. Cool completely, then cover and store at room temperature (lasts up to 2 weeks). * Can substitute raisins or dried cranberries in place of the dried cherries, if desired.
Tips:
- Choose the freshest peanuts possible. Fresh peanuts will have a sweeter flavor and crispier texture than older peanuts.
- Roast the peanuts at a low temperature. This will help to prevent them from burning and will allow them to develop a deeper flavor.
- Be careful not to over-roast the peanuts. Over-roasted peanuts will be bitter and dry.
- Use a variety of seasonings to flavor the peanuts. Chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, and smoked paprika are all good options.
- Store the roasted peanuts in an airtight container. This will help to keep them fresh and crispy.
