I love cinnamon roasted almonds, and this is a great recipe. I am a sucker for anything involving butter! The almonds had a richer flavor that similar recipes using water. I did find that the temperature was a little high and the cook time was a little long for my oven. The almonds started to get a little too brown after 20 minutes time using recipe specifications. I turned the oven down to 285 F, and started to check every 5 minutes. Total cook time at the lowered temp was an additional 10 minutes for perfectly brown and perfectly crunchy almonds. -
These are wonderful! I used pecan halves and 1/2 sugar and 1/2 cup stevia. One batch will not last long, so think about making a double batch. Thanks internetnut for sharing this gem. -
I just finished making these using pecans and followed the recipe as is. They are so good that if my family doesn't get home soon, I may have to make another batch!! -
I just made this about an hour ago. I cut the baking time down to 30 minutes total. two words: NOM NOM!<br/>Made with fresh Pecans from our tree, and its a hit! -
These were surprisingly good and even crunchy! I think I burned mine though (due to a hyperactively hot new oven that I'm still getting used to.) The cinnamon/sugar/egg white/butter combination is wonderful! Just be careful not to let them burn because burnt pecans taste aweful. I guess the best thing to do is taste-test them often as the cooking time comes to an end.

Excellent recipe with just a little tweak. I made with Pecans and used 4 cups instead of 3. I left everything else the same (used sugar). Also, no need to mix the coated nuts into the meted butter on the pan. Just spread the mixture out so it looks evenly spread; it will get mixed together when you stir after the first 10 minutes.

Now I post all recipes I've tried or would like to try. I'm actually making it my goal to try almost all the recipes I've posted as soon as I can. I love food and I love to eat and try different recipes. My favorite course is dessert. I love sweets! This leads me to that I did have Gastric Bypass surgery on July 25th 2008. On that note I love baking and cooking a priceless gift passed down from my grammy who I dearly loved and miss deeply. My grammy passed away 1/15/07. She was a wonderful cook and baker and taught me many things and the most valueable things was how to be a wonderful cook and baker like her. I really enjoy searching for new recipes especially here on Zaar. I'm always finding and adding to my cookbook new and exciting recipes. I also enjoy posting recipes here on Zaar as well. I really love collecting different cookbooks. I have over a 100 and growing! I collect mostly Taste Of Home & community cookbooks. The minute I get a cookbook home I sit down and I read my cookbooks from front to back like novels. I work for the Elmira City School District and YWCA. I'm raising my 8 yrs old newphew. I'm a part time college student studing Early Childhood Education, but taking time off and hoping to return soon. I live in Elmira, New York where famous writer Mark Twain did some of his writing and he once lived. I have 1 cats Samantha and 1 dog our newest member MOO MOO (my nieces dog) who are my children as I do not have any human children of my own. I lost four of my very dear children (kitty's) Callie June 2007, Miss Kitty in March 2010, my dog Angel in December 2010, and my other cat Chase in September 2011. I'm recently married on August 12th 2010. I love spending time with my niece 9 yrs old and my newphews 7 & 8 yrs old. I enjoy couponing and trading coupons. I love the internet as there's so much to look at online even though you know where I spend most of my time! I enjoy going to yard sales and estate sales every spring - fall. I love gardening and have many different pretty flowers.</p>
