These almonds are seriously good. I know that because the first pound I made lasted almost 24 hours.
They make a great Christmas gift.
Preheat your oven to 350 F.
Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper, covering all sides if possible.
Mix all the dry ingredients, except the cayenne, in a small mixing bowl.
Whisk the egg white, water and cayenne together in a medium mixing bowl until just frothy.
Add the almonds to the egg mixture and stir well to coat.
Reserve 1/4 cup of the dry mixture.
Add all but the reserved dry mixture to the almonds and stir to coat well.
Dump the coated nuts on the lined sheet pan and spread evenly. Try to get the almonds in a single layer, but it’s OK if they are clumped a little.
Bake on the middle rack for 15 minutes.
Stir the nuts with an oiled spatula. Make sure you keep them spread evenly.
Bake for another 10 minutes.
Stir the nuts with the oiled spatula and sprinkle evenly with the reserved dry mixture.
Bake for another 5 minutes.
Remove the nuts and stir periodically with the oiled spatula to separate them as they cool. Break up any large clusters.
When cooled, store in a zip-top bag.

My friend bought a new house and this is one of the “snacks” that I brought for the open house party. First thing gone and people wanted me to go make more. Thank you!! Delicious!!

These are wonderful. I didn’t have chipotle on hand so I left it out – I’m sure they would be even better with it. I made them for a family Christmas party and it’s a good thing we’re leaving soon; I’m having a hard time keeping them out of my mouth. I used a large ziploc bag instead of a bowl to mix them up – it worked great.
