Sweet Cinnamon Almonds

Sweet Cinnamon Almonds

These taste like the ones from the mall or state fair, but they're made with healthier ingredients.  The coconut sugar even makes them low glycemic, but the family will never know the difference!

Pre-heat the oven to 300F.  Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, and set it aside.

In a large mixing bowl beat until frothy:
1 egg white 

Add to the egg white and stir:
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla (I make my own.  Recipe here.)
1/8 teaspoon sea salt

Add to the egg white mixture, stirring to coat:
3 1/4 cups whole raw almonds

Add to the almond mixture, stirring to coat:
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 cup coconut sugar
2 packets Truvia-type sweetener

Spread the coated almonds onto the prepared baking sheet.  Bake them for about 25 to 30 minutes.  Cool them on the baking sheet thoroughly and store them tightly covered in a parchment lined container.  I left mine in chunks almost like a peanut brittle type candy, but they can be broken up and eaten individually, as well.

Enjoy!


PS:  I'll have photos up soon.  I just wanted to get this recipe posted a.s.a.p!
