    Instructions

    (Stops screen from sleeping)

    1 Wash jar in warm water. Leave it in the sun or a warm place to dry inside.

    2 Pour salt and almonds into a small non-stick frying pan. Cook over a medium heat, shaking the pan from time to time, until almonds turn golden. DO NOT LEAVE PAN UNATTENDED. Keep a careful eye on almonds which can suddenly turn golden quickly.

    3 Pour almonds into a sieve over the sink and shake off salt (it’s OK if some salt sticks to the almonds).

    4 Arrange ingredients in jar: first, a layer of roasted almonds at the bottom followed by a cranberry layer then topped with a coconut layer. Close lid. Attach instruction label to bottle. Wrap with wax paper or cheese cloth.
