    Spicy Maple Almonds - Mary Spenningsby, MMSPA

    1/4 cup pure maple syrup
    1 teaspoon chilli peppers, crushed
    3 cups almonds, toasted
    3 tablespoons sugar
    1 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon chili powder
    1 teaspoon cayenne pepper

    Preheat over to 325°F. Warm maple syrup and crushed red pepper in a large skillet over medium heat for 1 minute. Stir in almonds. Remove from heat and spread almonds on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Bake at 325°F for 20 minutes; cool 2 to 3 minutes. Maple mixture will be slightly sticky on the almonds. Combine the sugar, salt, chili powder, and cayenne pepper in a large bowl. Stir in almonds and toss to coat. Spread nuts on parchment paper to cool.
