Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 275 degrees. In a large bowl, add egg white and water, then whisk vigorously until frothy.
  2. Stir in almonds until coated with mixture, then transfer to a colander and let drain 5 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile in a bowl, combine sugar, salt, smoked paprika, chili powder, cumin, coriander and cayenne pepper.
  4. Place almonds in a sealable container or bag, add paprika mixture and shake until well coated. Spread almonds onto a large baking sheet in a single layer (or as close to single layer as you can).
  5. Bake for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes, until roasted. Remove from oven and immediately transfer to a clean baking sheet. Let cool 5 minutes, then separate any that clumped together and cool completely. The almonds will crisp as they cool.
  6. Store in a re-sealable container or bag. Can be frozen for up to 6 months.
