Cinnamon Almonds in the Crockpot
These slow cooker cinnamon almonds not only taste amazing, they smell amazing! The aroma of cinnamon and sugar permeates the kitchen as the almonds roast for several hours in the Crockpot. It reminds me of the yummy smell of roasted nuts at football games. The real deal smells so much better than any candle you can buy. We especially love making these around the Holiday season for the taste and smell of Christmas in the house. These snacks were so easy to make, and a lot cheaper than the ones you buy at the game, but every bit as good! I got my almonds from the bulk section at Winco, which made them even more affordable.
Ingredients in Cinnamon Candied Almonds
For cinnamon almonds the simple ingredients divide into a cinnamon sugar mixture and an egg white mixture. The almonds are tossed in the egg white mixture before the cinnamon and sugar are added to help make the perfect candy coating.

Cinnamon Almonds Variations and Substitutions
For Christmas gifts, sometimes at the very end I add a little crushed candy cane. It makes them look more festive, and it was really yummy! However, it is totally optional if you are not a peppermint lover. If you do love peppermint, you can add a little peppermint extract to the mix instead of vanilla extract for a more minty flavor. Feel free to substitute the almonds for cinnamon pecans, cashews, walnuts or hazelnuts. Both are really yummy! If cinnamon isn’t your thing, substitute the cinnamon for some caramel topping for a caramel flavored crunch. I also want to try adding coconut half way through the cooking process for some toasted coconut almonds. I’ll let you know how it turns out.
