These sweet and crunchy, slow roasted almonds coated in cinnamon sugar will give you the best smelling house in the neighborhood.
Ingredients
- 4 1/2 cups raw almonds
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 1 1/2 cups brown sugar
- 3 tbs cinnamon (Optional)
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 1 egg white
- 1/4 cup water
Instructions
- Lightly grease the bowl of your slow cooker, then add the almonds.
- In a mixing bowl, combine both sugars, the cinnamon, and salt. Stir to evenly mix.
- In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together vanilla and egg whites.
- Pour egg white mixture over the almonds and toss to coat.
- Add the sugar mixture to the almonds, and again, toss to coat.
- Cover and let cook on low for 3 to 3 1/2 hours, stirring every 20-30 minutes.
- Stir in the water then cover and cook another 20-30 minutes.
