Cinnamon Sugared Almonds Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl, stir together the cinnamon, cayenne pepper and 1 tablespoon of the sugar; set aside.
• In a 4-quart saucepan, combine 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons water and the remaining 1 1/2 cups sugar. Stir over medium-high heat until the sugar dissolves and the mixture boils.
• Add the almonds and stir constantly over medium-high heat until the water evaporates and the sugar starts to dry and turn gray. (The sugar mixture will start to foam and then start to dry and look like sand. This takes 5 to 6 minutes.) Continue stirring constantly until the sugar starts to melt and caramelize, coating about half of the almonds in a reddish-brown sugar mixture and the rest in a glossy sugar mixture, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Sprinkle the cinnamon mixture over the almonds, stirring constantly, and immediately transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spreading the almonds to separate. Cool completely, then break apart. Store the almonds in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat, and stir constantly until the water has evaporated and the nuts are covered in a totally dry coating, roughly 15 minutes. Transfer almonds to a plate lined with wax paper and allow to cool.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Lightly grease a 10x15 inch jellyroll pan.
• Lightly beat the egg white; add water, and beat until frothy but not stiff. Add the nuts, and stir until well coated. Mix the sugar, salt, and cinnamon, and sprinkle over the nuts. Toss to coat, and spread evenly on the prepared pan.
• Bake for 1 hour in the preheated oven, stirring occasionally, until golden. Allow to cool, then store nuts in airtight containers.

Steps:

• In a large, heavy bottomed, skillet place the sugar and water.
• Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
• Add the almonds and cook, stirring constantly, until almost all the water has evaporated; about 5 minutes.
• Add the cinnamon and salt and cook until the sugar has dried on the almonds; about 2 minutes.
• Pour onto a large sheet pan and let cool.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
• Line a baking sheet with foil and lightly spray with vegetable oil.
• In a large bowl combine sugar and cinnamon.
• In another large bowl beat egg white until slightly frothy. Stir in vanilla and salt.
• Add almonds to egg mixture and toss to coat.
• Then pour almonds into cinnamon sugar mixture and toss to coat.
• Spread sugar coated almonds on lined baking sheet.
• Bake 25 minutes; stir after 10 minutes.
• Let cool and remove from pan with slotted spoon.

Steps:

• Spray slow cooker liberally with cooking spray.
• Combine sugar, cinnamon and salt; whisk well and set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk egg white and vanilla until frothy. Add almonds and toss to coat thoroughly. Pour in sugar mixture and again toss thoroughly to coat.
• Pour coated almonds into slow cooker. Cover and cook on high 2 hours, stirring every 20 minutes to prevent burning.
• Spray a piece of aluminum foil or parchment with cooking spray. Pour almonds onto prepared surface, spread out and let cool to room temperature. Store in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Put all ingredients (except for the almonds) into a bowl and microwave at 600 Watt for 2 minutes.
• Add the almonds into the bowl and mix thoroughly. Put it another 2 minutes into the microwave oven.
• Mix again and microwave it another 2 minutes.
• Let the almonds cool on a baking sheet or paper. (I usually use a plastic tray.) Use two forks to separate sticking almonds immediately from each other. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place almonds in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet and toast until fragrant, about 10 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through. Line a rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper and place a cooling rack on top; set aside.
• In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, water, toasted almonds, and cinnamon. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until sugar becomes golden, then starts to crystallize, and almonds are completely coated, about 8 minutes. (As the sugar cooks it seems really dry and you think it can't be right, keep stirring) Pour the almond mixture onto the parchment-lined baking sheet. Transfer to the freezer or refrigerator to chill for 15 minutes - or just let cool.
• Place the chocolate in a heatproof bowl and set over a pan of simmering water. Stir until melted. Add the chilled almond mixture, stirring until nuts are thoroughly coated. Spoon onto cooling rack-lined baking sheet. Separate almonds with a fork. Place baking sheets in refrigerator until chocolate is set, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Place cocoa powder in a large bowl and add the almond mixture. Toss to coat, shaking off excess cocoa powder. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 month.
