Easy Candied Almonds and Pecans

Print

Equipment

  • 1 Mixing Bowl
  • 1 Baking sheet

Ingredients

  • 1 Egg White
  • 1 Teaspoon Vanilla
  • 1/2 Cup Brown Sugar
  • 1/2 Cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1/4 Teaspoon Salt
  • 2 Cups Raw Almonds
  • 1 1/2 Cups Raw Pecans

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 250℉
  • Prepare a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray or parchment.
  • Add the egg white and vanilla to a mixing bowl and blend until frothy.
  • Coat almonds and pecans with frothy egg white mix.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the sugars, cinnamon and salt. Whisk until combined.
  • Sprinkle the cinnamon and spice mix over the nuts and turn with a spatula until all are evenly coated.
  • Add the nuts to your baking sheet and roast for 1 hour, 15 minutes. Stir/turn every 20 minutes to ensure even roasting. If you're in a pinch and need to speed up roasting time, you can roast them at 300℉ for 40 minutes (stirring every 12-15 minutes).
  • Enjoy the nuts warm or allow them to fully cool before storing extras in a ziplock bag or airtight container.
  • They will stay good for 2 weeks if you need to make them ahead.

Notes

You can use whatever nut combo you like best, just make sure you are using 16oz. I love almonds and pecans, but walnuts would also be a delicious addition!
