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

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk the egg white with water until frothy. This helps the spices and other ingredients stick to the almonds.

Step 3

Add the cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt to the egg white mixture and mix well.

Step 4

Stir in the raw almonds, ensuring they are well coated with the egg white mixture.

Step 5

Add the unsweetened shredded coconut and date syrup to the bowl. Mix until almonds are evenly coated.

Step 6

Spread the coated almonds out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes to ensure even cooking and prevent burning.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let the almonds cool completely on the baking sheet. As they cool, they will become crisp.

Step 9

Once cooled, break apart any clusters and store the candied almonds in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.
