Cinnamon Sugared Almonds


A sweet nut.

No, I'm not talking about you!

You sweet thing...you're just a nut.
;-)

I'm talking about cinnamon sugared almonds.

I've had these (expensive!) almonds at fairs and such.

I figured there had to be an easy way to make them at home...



Easy indeed!

almonds
sugar
cinnaomon
water

That's all you need!

And 15 minutes of constantly stirring.

After a quick cool down, you can start popping these babies in your mouth.

But, be warned...they are addictive!

Here's the recipe:


Cinnamon Sugared Almonds

2 cups whole almonds
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup water

Combine all ingredients in a sauce pan over medium heat.
Continually stir until the liquid has evaporated, leaving a sticky coating on the almonds.
This should take approximately 15 minutes.
Pour almonds on to a wax lined baking sheet and allow to cool.

    1. Well, well... it was a lot of work testing this recipe. I can't even tell you how long they should last in a sealed container, because, well, they didn't last. ;-)
