SPICY COCOA ROASTED ALMONDS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 275°F. Line a baking sheet with a silicon baking mat or with parchment paper. Set aside. Whisk together the egg white, vanilla bean paste, and a few drops of water in a mixing bowl. Beat mixture until it is light and frothy. Add the almonds and toss to evenly coat with the egg white mixture. In a separate bowl, combine the sugars, cocoa powder, cinnamon, cayenne, and salt. Whisk together to remove any lumps. Add the almonds, and toss to coat. Spread the coated almonds out on the prepared baking sheet. Roast for 30 - 40 minutes, stirring every 10-15 minutes. Keep a close watch on the almonds because they will burn quickly. Once the almonds are done, spread them out on a large piece of parchment or waxed paper until they have cooled completely.
