    Addictive! I tweaked this recipe only a little. To increase flavor I reduced nuts to 3 cups but kept coating ingredients the same. Be sure to wisk the egg white until it is VERY foamy. Baking an extra 30 minutes increased the crunchiness! It's important to use the correct size baking sheet for the amount - Read more ...

    We're NOT worthy We're not worthy... AAHHH went to get this recipe for a co-worker (made them for holidays and have been "advised" to make them again) and started to salivate thinking of them! Also added 1/2 cup brown sugar & vanilla to egg white on second batch really did make them perfect! I also - Read more ...

    Excellent everyone says they are very moorish! but like others did I followed the recipe but also added a half cup of brown sugar used 1/2 tsp of salt as my almonds were unsalted (salt brings out the flavour in everything without having to taste salty) and 1 tsp vanilla and 2 tsp cinnamon! other - Read more ...

    I thought these would be really great after reading all the rave reviews. However, I found the first batch I tried to smell really great while baking but just tasting a little bland. I agree with some previous posts that added a lot more to it. I don't know why they gave such a high - Read more ...

    I used 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon 1/2 cup brown sugar & 1 tsp vanilla. These are sooo good & sooo much easier to make than my old recipe. Thanks BJ.

    Wow these are great! I added about 1/2 tsp. of vanilla to the egg white. If you are using salted nuts omit the salt. I also made a separate batch for my folks using Splenda since they are low carb-ing. The Splenda batch was drier so double the cinnamon / Splenda mixture for a heavier - Read more ...

    This is a wonderful recipe! I have been making roasted almonds for a few years at X-mas time for my sisters who absolutely adore them, but I have never really liked them much. This year I decided to tweak the recipe a bit, and I am very, very happy with the results, SUPER! For one - Read more ...

    A hit! We made 4 batches of these fabulous nuts right before Christmas. We gave part of them away as gifts and ate way too many standing in the kitchen. They are very easy and very tasty. I did make double the amount of coating so that the nuts would be totally covered and used - Read more ...

    These taste just like the ones from the stand at the mall. And they charge 3.25 for an individual serving of them. Much cheaper to make at home and they taste exactly the same. One tip though they are very sticky. I baked them on parchment paper. Also I used 1 tsp. cinnamon and also - Read more ...
