I'm allergic to nuts, but I was able to make this recipe using sunflower seeds instead of almonds. They turned out really well!

I had trouble finding some of the spices that the recipe called for. I ended up using substitutes and the almonds still turned out great.

I found that the almonds were a bit too oily. I think I would use less oil next time.

These almonds are a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar next time.

These almonds are a great way to use up leftover egg whites. I always have some leftover after I make macarons or meringues.
