Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
  • 2 egg whites
  • 3 teaspoons vanilla
  • 2 cups almonds
  • 2 cups cashews
  • 2 cups pecans

Instructions

  • Spray the slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray.
  • In a large bowl, stir together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Set aside.
  • In a separate small bowl, whisk the egg whites and vanilla until slightly frothy.
  • Add all the nuts to the slow cooker. Pour the egg white mixture over them and stir until the nuts are fully coated.
  • Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture over the nuts and stir again until everything is well coated. Cover and cook on low for 3 hours, stirring every 20 minutes.
  • When 20 minutes of cook time remain, pour 1/4 cup warm water into the slow cooker and stir.
  • When the cooking time is complete, spread the nuts onto a parchment-lined or silicone-lined baking sheet and let them cool until dry.

Notes

  • Be sure to use the parchment paper, waxed paper, or silicone mat when dumping the nuts out to cool to avoid them sticking to your pan.
