Serves: 1½ - 2 cups
Ingredients
  • ¾ cup sliced almonds that have been chopped up a bit
  • ¾ cup UNsweetened shredded coconut
  • 6 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350ยบ F.
  2. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, mix together the sugar, water and salt. Add the almonds and coconut and stir well.
  3. On a silpat- or parchment paper-lined cookie sheet, spread the mixture evenly.
  4. Cook in preheated oven for 10-15 minutes. If you want things crispy and browned, go on the longer side. If you cook it just for 10 minutes or so, things will not be browned, they will still be crispy, just not as crispy. Both ways are equally delicious, it's just a preference thing.
  5. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
  6. Stir and break up the pieces and store in an air-tight container. Should keep for quite some time.
