  3. 3
    Melt the sugar with the water in a pot over medium heat, without stirring, until it turns amber.

    💡Don't stir: stirring makes the sugar crystallize. If needed, swirl the pot gently. The color changes fast, so don't walk away.
  4. 4
    Add the canola oil and salt and stir quickly.
  5. 5
    Add the almonds and stir until they are evenly coated in caramel.
  6. 6
    Pour onto the parchment paper and spread it flat. Let cool until the praline hardens, then break it into pieces.
