Candied Almonds Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

Filled with protein, good fats, vitamin e, and plenty of minerals, almonds are a true power food. Nutrient-dense and healthy, these nuts are a great portable wholesome snack, with 6 grams of protein per 24 almonds. Our sweet version is a decadent option, and used in sweet or savory dishes is a healthy treat that won't disappoint. A sweet and crunchy mouthful when coated with sugar, it has the right amount of sweetness and bite. Delicious on their own, these sugary nuts can be further covered in white or dark chocolate, be the filling for truffles or fudge, or be beautiful decorations for cupcakes, cakes, tarts, and pies. Incorporate them in homemade candy bars, use them as toppings for yogurt parfaits or ice cream bars, or chop them into your morning oatmeal. Use them instead of croutons in fresh salads, or chop them on top of roasted chicken breasts, grilled pork chops, or baked salmon. Adding citrus zest, rose water, vanilla, or orange blossom provides a fragrant variation. Use flaked coconut, chili flakes, or himalayan pink salt on top of the sugary coat for a flavorful and unusual sweet and salty treat. Experiment with rum, bourbon, or any liquor of your liking for an adult version with a kick.
