Roasted Almonds

Roasted Spiced Almonds
Warning: These sweet & spicy almonds are addictive, so make plenty!
· 2 tbsp (30 ml) liquid honey
· 2 tbsp (30 ml) vegetable oil
· 2 tbsp (30 ml) granulated sugar
· 1 tsp (5 ml) cayenne pepper
· 1 tsp (5 ml) paprika
· 1 tsp (5 ml) salt
· 3 cups whole almonds (do not remove skin, as you loose flavour)
Preheat oven to 350F. Generously grease a large baking sheet with shallow sides. In a large bowl, stir honey with oil, sugar, cayenne pepper, paprika & salt; mix well. Add nuts to mixture. Using a wooden spoon, mix until evenly coated. Spread nuts in single layer on baking sheet. Roast uncovered in centre of 350F oven, stirring frequently, until nuts are toasted & glazed, for approximately 15-17 minutes. Remove from oven & let cook, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Place nuts in bowl and serve. Nuts will keep well in airtight container, in a cool place, for up to 4 days.
