Heat a skillet over medium heat.  Melt the coconut oil, then pour in remaining ingredients, stirring to coat nuts evenly.  Cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring constantly.  Remove from heat just when mixture starts to caramelize and smoke just a bit.  Spread nuts out on a piece of parchment paper to cool.

  1. I tried this recipe using raw almonds. They tasted exactly like the sugared cinnamon almonds you buy at sports events for $$. Thanks for the much less expensive,healthier version!
