# What You Need:
→ Nuts
01 - 2 cups raw whole almonds (approx. 300 grams)
→ Spices & Sweeteners
02 - 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
03 - 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional)
04 - 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
05 - 1/2 cup granulated sugar (approx. 100 grams)
06 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
→ Binding
07 - 1 large egg white
08 - 1 tablespoon water
# Steps:
01 - Preheat the oven to 300°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
02 - In a large bowl, whisk the egg white and water until frothy but not stiff.
03 - Add the raw almonds to the egg white mixture and toss thoroughly until well coated.
04 - In a separate small bowl, mix together granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg if using, and sea salt.
05 - Sprinkle the sugar and spice mixture over the coated almonds, stirring until evenly covered.
06 - Incorporate the vanilla extract into the almonds, mixing to distribute evenly.
07 - Spread the almonds in a single layer across the prepared baking sheet.
08 - Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes to ensure uniform roasting until golden and fragrant.
09 - Remove the almonds from the oven and allow them to cool completely on the baking sheet; the coating will harden as they cool.
10 - Transfer cooled almonds to an airtight container and store at room temperature for up to two weeks.
