Ingredients
- 1 pound almonds (and/or pecans)
- 1/3 cup butter, melted
- 1 cup sugar
- 4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 egg whites
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Preparation
Step 1
To get that light, wonderful crust, we whisked egg whites into stiff peeks and then added the sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
30min to prepare (makes 4 servings)
1/3 cup butter, melted
Preheat the oven to 250º F.
Beat the egg whites with a dash of salt until frothy. Gradually add the sugar and vanilla extract and continue to beat until the whites begin to form stiff peaks. Gently fold in the almonds and cinnamon.
Place the melted butter in a large mixing bowl and stir the almonds into the butter, coating them.
Transfer the almonds to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Place in oven and bake for 1 hour, stirring them every 15 minutes.
