Cinnamon Roasted almonds

I love almonds as a snack, and I love the ones you can get at the store that are dusted in a dark chocolate powder, or considered "cinnamon roasted". The things are super tasty, and good for you even when one considers they are a bit of a sweeter treat. But....I don't like paying more for the special ones, and I have to wonder...how does one roast and make one a cinnamon almond? Anyone ever tried to do this? Any ideas? Tips? I wonder if I could do this in the stove, or maybe with the dehydrator. Edit: Ima try this recipe I think
To say my husband has never been a low-carber would be an understatement. Mark's favorite foods include pizza, burritos, and pasta. A typical snack is pretzels right out of the bag. He also has a bit...

My step dad used t fix blanched almonds fancy for the holidays. I wonder if you blanched them in oil and then put the cinnamon stuff on it. That would make it stick better. And then bake them a while in the oven.

@Jessicalynnt ...I found instructions for blanching and added it at the bottom. I would do that and then put the stuff on them and roast them in the oven. I beleve these are for raw almonds. Okay?
How to instructions on blanching almonds for recipes.

I couldn't make suggestions on roasting them, but I also enjoy eating them.

I was just looking at some videos on Youtube on how to make them. No wonder they taste so good, there is a lot of sugar in them.

It sounds pretty tasty, but the ony thing I've experimented with are sunflower seeds.

I have tried pumpkin seeds baked, tasty, and squash seeds, those were odd. maybe need to run those through the dehydrator next time instead

I would say roast the almonds in a pan like they do in the streets. Roast the nuts with butter with cinnamon,sugar and butter or honey and a pinch of salt to enhance the sweetness.

@Jessicalynnt if it isn't I am sure there are ways to improvise like using a cooking device with temperature control settings. Although it may not be ideal to go out and uy such appliances if it isn't something you would use often.

I would think you just add some cinnamon to them.
