Candied Almonds

Thoroughly mix sugar, vanilla sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.

Heat a shallow non-stick pan empty over medium-high heat.

Add the almonds to the hot pan and briefly toast them while stirring.

Add the sugar mixture and 2 tbsp of water to the almonds and heat while stirring until the sugar first turns grainy and then partly caramelizes.

Immediately transfer the almond mixture onto baking paper and spread it quickly.

Let cool for a few minutes, then break into pieces and allow to cool completely.
