Ingredients

8 strips bacon
8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter
1 cup packed brown sugar
4 teaspoons five-spice powder
1 teaspoon cayenne
1 teaspoon kosher salt
8 cups raw almonds

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels. When cool enough to handle, chop the bacon into small pieces. Set aside.
Meanwhile, pour off most of the bacon fat from the hot skillet and add the butter. Add the sugar, five-spice powder, cayenne and salt and stir until the sugar dissolves and everything is combined. Add the almonds and stir to coat.
Spread the nuts on the prepared baking sheet and bake until golden brown, about 30 minutes. Stir in the bacon and serve warm or at room temperature.

I adopted this recipe a while ago and have changed the amount of salt. The original recipe called for 1/2 cup which seemed far too much.

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

¼ cup white sugar
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 ½ cups whole almonds
1 tablespoon water
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon olive oil

Steps:

Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spread the almonds onto a baking sheet, and toast until the nuts start to turn golden brown and become fragrant, about 10 minutes. Watch the nuts carefully as they bake: they burn quickly.
Stir together the sugar, salt, and cayenne pepper in a mixing bowl; set aside.
Stir together the water, honey, and olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the mixture begins to bubble, stir in the toasted almonds until evenly moistened. Pour the almonds into the sugar and spice mixture, and toss until evenly coated. Spread onto baking sheets in a single layer, and cool to room temperature.
