Directions

  1. 1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
  2. 2. Beat egg whites until soft peaks begin to form. Add sugar, cinnamon, salt and vanilla; beat until stiff peaks form and turn glossy. Fold in nuts and coat well with the egg white mixture.
  3. 3. Put the butter in a 9 by 13 inch baking pan, place it in the oven and wait for the butter to melt. Evenly spread coated nuts over the melted butter in the pan.
  4. 4. Bake for 30 minutes, stirring and turning nuts about every 10 minutes, or until butter no longer remains in pan.
  5. 5. Place the hot nuts on foil and allow to cool. They can be store in an airtight container for several weeks.
