Instructions
 

the quick version in the microwave

  • Boil the water and sugar (on the stove or in the micro) - add unpeeled almonds and cinnamon and stir well - now place the pot in the microwave without the lid - simmer for 2 minutes at 720 watts - take out, stir well and stir again for 2 minutes Cook at 720 watts - take out again, stir and check how far the caramel is - if necessary, put it in again 1-2 times for 30 seconds and continue cooking - but CAUTION at this stage the almonds burn easily if you are not careful - last add another piece of butter (prevents the almonds from sticking together) - swirl well and briefly again in the micro - when the butter has spread evenly over the almonds, the finished almonds are placed on an oiled dish to cool

Conclusion

  • the microwave almonds taste really good and are definitely faster and easier to prepare! The sugar layer is a bit thinner and rougher ... However, the almonds normally prepared on the stove are a tad finer in taste, and they are crunchier on the outside than microwave almonds ...
