  • Remove the almonds from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes before stirring once more to prevent clusters.

Notes

Skillet/Stovetop option: Add the sugar and cinnamon, along with 1 1/4 cups of water, in a saucepan or skillet over medium heat. Let everything simmer until a syrup forms. Add the almonds and mix until combined. Transfer onto a lined sheet to firm up.
TO STORE: Leftover candied nuts can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one month or in the fridge for two months. 
TO FREEZE: Place almonds in a ziplock bag and store in the freezer for up to six months.
