Cinnamon-Roasted Almonds


This is a great recipe for the holidays to keep out for guests. It is always a hit with my friends and family and tastes just like the almonds you buy from the mall or those carts in Chicago.


INGREDIENTS
1 egg white
1 teaspoon cold water

1/4 teaspoon vanilla
4 cups whole almonds
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon



Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Lightly grease a 10x15 inch jellyroll pan.
Lightly beat the egg white; add water and vanilla, and beat until frothy but not stiff. Add the nuts, and stir until well coated. Mix the sugar, salt, and cinnamon, and sprinkle over the nuts. Toss to coat, and spread evenly on the prepared pan.
Bake for 1 hour, stirring occasionally, until golden. Allow to cool, then store in airtight container
