Add 1/4 tsp (or to taste) cayenne pepper for a kick
Made just before the holidays to give as gifts. They turned out fabulous. Only thing I did different was give a little pinch of nutmeg and a dash of vanilla in there also.
This is a great recipe! I’ve made it with turbinado sugar and gave it a great caramel flavor.
Four stars because it probably would have been fine as is, but I doubled the coating and it’s amazing. No brown sugar, no vanilla, just doubled the sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Addicting!
Used spend a and it was great!
These are so easy to make and so delicious! I didn’t add any water to the egg and instead of greasing the pan I used parchment paper. I think I will add a bit more cinnamon the next time I make them though.
I did what some others had done. 2 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon, 1 teaspoon vanilla instead of water, added 1/2 cup of brown sugar ( with 1/2 cup of white sugar) and tried only 2 tablespoons of melted butter. I had almonds, walnuts and pecans that I wanted to try this with and it turned out Yummy!
I followed others’ tips and replaced the water with vanilla. I also used 2 1/2C of almonds instead of 4C and just a bit less sugar, but almost double the cinnamon (as I do in almost all recipes-love cinnamon!) Seemed to be a good mix. My son even ate a bunch and he is super picky!
This is my husband go to recipe for cinnamon almonds.
I went with aquafaba instead of the egg white to keep it vegan and used monkfruit sugar. They came out amazing, just like the kind you find at festivals. I will make them again…and maybe next time I will share.
This is a brilliant recipe. I tried it twice and it was just wow. Thank you to the original poster. I like my nuts sweeter so I added more cinnamon and sugar. Tastes so good, highly recommend, such a perfect snack
Nice and simple. Be sure to follow precisely. I only had 2.5 cups of almonds to coat and still used a whole egg white. It took awhile for the almonds to dry out and a much of the coating ended up in the pan. But they taste nice anyway. I expect they would have been better (more crunchy and more of a roasted flavor) if I had followed the recipe precisely,
Delicious ! Quick and easy to prepare. Thank you! I made exactly as written. My husband loved them.
We loved! add half or equal amt as white sugar of brown sugar double topping (maybe) use vanilla instead of water
Made it just the way it said to – excellent!
I make these every Year for the holiday. I make the recipe as is and they’re always a hit. I’ve even given them out in mugs as part of a gift.
I modified based on this review: tweeking for a perfect end result. The changes made: substitute 1tsp. vanilla for the water, add 1/2 cup of brown sugar to dry ingredients, increase the cinnamon to 1tsp. used 1/2 cup of white sugar ingredient,used a 16oz. pkg. of almonds for this recipe to ensure good coating. If using more nuts, increase the coating ingredients. Cooked my batch on a cookie sheet with parchment paper (easy cleanup) at 250 degrees for 1hr.15mins. stirring every 20 mins or so.
Quick and easy from pantry to oven.
i double the almonds and egg white and water. still plenty sweet.
These were great. They were made for a bunch of people that dont even like almonds. I added a little more cinnamon and sugar then it called for and they were devoured in No time.
I never post reviews but I love this recipe! It’s my go-to and is always a hit. Been giving it as a gift for friends for years. Again, love it!!
