Ingredients

  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ tbsp ground cinnamon
  • ½ tbsp ground cloves
  • ½ tbsp ground nutmeg
  • 1 large egg white
  • 1 tsp water
  • 4 cups salted almonds
  • 1 round Langres


Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 250°F.

2 Combine the sugar, cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg in a small bowl.

3 In a separate bowl, beat together the egg white and water until frothy. Add the almonds and stir until well coated.

4 Add the sugar and spice mixture to the nuts and stir until well coated.

5 Grease a large shallow baking pan. Spread the nuts evenly onto the pan and place on the middle rack of the oven.

6 Bake until the nuts are dry, about 50 minutes, stirring occasionally.

7 Cool before breaking the nuts into chunks and serve atop the round of Langres cheese.

Tip: The nuts can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.

Prep and cook time: 1 hour.
Makes about 4 cups.
