How to make Jeenas sugared almonds praline recipe.

Chop up the almonds.

Place into a pan at a medium heat. Keep shaking the pan so that the almonds toast evenly.

You do not need to brown the almonds, just lightly toast them for a minute or two until you smell the almonds toasting.

Notice that the almonds only toasted to a light golden colour not dark.

On a medium heat warm up the caster sugar.

Keep stiring the sugar until it melts down into an amber colour.

Add the toasted almonds straight away and mix well.

Lightly grease a plate or tray and pour the sugared almonds onto it, leave to cool.

Once cooled place into a plastic bag and tap with a rolling pin.

Your sugared almonds praline recipe is now ready to use.

Enjoy!

Enjoy Jeenas sugared almonds on top of your favourite sweets and dessert or my strawberry gateau recipe!

Almond Crumble

This recipe is just delightful! My hubby and I enjoyed it so much I just had to blog it. It is very easy and quick to make, you dont need it to set or cook. The smooth toffee taste to the eucalyptus honey and the lovely caramel flavour of the manuka honey sweeten this dish to absolute perfection! Raw almonds are packed with flavour and they compliment every other flavour in this dish. When you need a quick fix to a sweet tooth after a meal this definitely is it! You will truly believe the exquisiteness of this sweet dish when you taste it for yourself. Go ahead and give it a go. :)

Ingredients
approx 1/2 Tub Cream Cheese
1 Tbsp Manuka Honey(active10+)
1 Tbsp Eucalyptus Honey(mine was Australian)
2 Crushed Ginger Biscuits
2 Tbsp Strawberry Conserve
approx Handful Raw Whole Almonds(Chopped)

Stir together well your honeys and cream cheese, taste it to see if you want a little more honey. You dont need to whisk it just mix well. Mix your crushed ginger biscuits and chopped almonds into 2 small dishes.

Add your cream cheese/honey mixture on top of the crumble. Do it a small spoon full at a time, dont worry that it doesnt spread easy - it is not supposed too.

Finish off by adding a little strawberry conserve in the middle and a few sliced raw almonds. Enjoy this simple yet so very delicious sweet!
