Nothing beats a sweet treat: Sugar & Cinnamon Coated Almonds

I love finding easy and yummy recipes. These sugared cinnamon almonds just seem too good to be true. I was a little worried that the sugar would sticks to the slices of the crockpot, but it was completely fine. I found this recipe from a fellow slow cooker blogger Detrimental Beauty

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cup white sugar
1 1/2 cup brown sugar
3 tbsp cinnamon
1/8 tsp salt
1 egg white
2 tsp vanilla
3 cups almonds
1/4 cup water

In a medium sized bowl, mix together sugars, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside. In another medium sized bowl, whisk the egg white and vanilla until it is a little frothy. Add almonds. Make sure the almonds are thoroughly coated in the egg white mixture. Add cinnamon mixture to the almonds and toss until coated.

Thoroughly spray the stoneware of your large crock pot with oil. Add the mixture of almonds and sugars to the crock pot and turn it to low.

Cook with the lid on for 3-4 hours stirring every 20 minutes. In the last hour add the 1/4 cup water and stir well. Continue to cook the nuts for another 45 minutes to an hour. This ensures a crunchy coating.

Stir really well, especially as it gets later in the cooking process.

Line a baking sheet with parchment and spread the almonds flat to cool. The almonds will be sticky at this point, so make sure you separate them a little and have no large mounds.

Store in an air tight container if they last that long! Enjoy!
