Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups raw almonds
- 1 large egg white
- 1 tablespoon water
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 0.25 cup date syrup
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the egg white with water until frothy. This helps the spices and other ingredients stick to the almonds.
Add the cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt to the egg white mixture and mix well.
Stir in the raw almonds, ensuring they are well coated with the egg white mixture.
Add the unsweetened shredded coconut and date syrup to the bowl. Mix until almonds are evenly coated.
Spread the coated almonds out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes to ensure even cooking and prevent burning.
Remove from the oven and let the almonds cool completely on the baking sheet. As they cool, they will become crisp.
Once cooled, break apart any clusters and store the candied almonds in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.
