- 3 cups raw almonds
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 tsp ground ginger
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp allspice

- Preheat oven to 300F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together egg white until frothy. Add the almonds and stir to coat, then add the white sugar, brown sugar, ginger, cinnamon, allspice and salt, and stir until well combined.
- Using a slotted spoon, scoop the almonds onto the prepared baking sheet, and spread out into an even layer.
