Cinnamon Almonds - Crock Pot



OMG...these ROCK! They are just like the ones you get at the fair. I am IN LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!! Easy to make too:-) The only thing I have to say about them...is keep stirring about every 20 minutes or they will burn...and make sure you spread them out on foil or something so they can harden. If you don't spread them out they will harden in big clumps...and you don't want that. This was my first attempt at making these are they turned out perfect...it's easy...just keep an eye on them!


Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 C. Sugar
  • 3 Tbsp. Cinnamon
  • 1/8 tsp. Salt
  • 1 Egg White
  • 2 tsp. vanilla
  • 3 1/2 Cups Almonds
  • 1/4 C. Water
Directions
  1. In a medium sized bowl, mix together sugas, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
  2. In another medium sized bowl, whisk the egg white and vanilla until it’s a little frothy. Add almonds. Make sure the almonds are thoroughly coated in the egg white mixture.
  3. Add cinnamon mixture to the almonds and toss until coated.
  4. Thoroughly spray the stoneware of your large crock pot. Add the mixture of almonds and sugars to the crock pot and turn it to high
  5. Cook ( with the lid on ) 1 1/2 hours, stirring every 20 minutes. In the last 15  minutes, add the 1/4 C. of water and stir well. Stir really well, especially as it gets later in the cooking process.
  6. 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.
  7. Once the almonds have cooled store them in an air tight storage container and enjoy as you wish!!!!
