Everyone loves these almonds and they're very easy to make. I always use less cayenne and Tabasco than called for but if you like heat use the full amounts. Store in a freezer bag in the freezer. Great for hostess gifts! Ingredients:
1/4 cup light corn syrup |
2 tablespoons butter |
2 tablespoons water |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
2 teaspoons paprika |
1 teaspoon tabasco sauce (or a bit less) |
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or a bit less) |
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper |
1 lb whole almond (skins on) |
Directions:
1. Bring corn syrup, butter and water to a boil in a saucepan large enough to hold the almonds.
2. Stir in spices.
3. Add almonds and stir to coat.
4. Place on a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet and bake at 275 degrees for 1 hour.
5. Stir every 15 minutes to distribute the glaze and separate the nuts.
6. Cool and break apart any nuts that are stuck together.
