- 1½ cup (115g) dried cranberries
- 1½ cup (115g) Candied Spiced Almonds (see recipe)

- cup (100g) sugar
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon

- 1-1 ½ teaspoons smoked paprika* – some smoked paprika are quite hot, if you don’t like “hot”, just use 1 teaspoon and they will be mildly spiced.

- The cumin and the smoked paprika give just a hint of mysterious, delicious flavor – even though these are savory spices, these almonds are still wonderful served with sweets like ice cream or yogurt.
