Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups raw almonds
- 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon fleur de sel
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon neutral oil (such as grapeseed or avocado oil)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the raw almonds, maple syrup, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and oil. Stir well to coat the almonds evenly with the mixture.
Spread the coated almonds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overlapping for even roasting.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, stir the almonds gently with a spatula to ensure even browning.
Return the baking sheet to the oven and roast for another 8-10 minutes, or until the almonds are golden brown and fragrant. Keep a close eye during the final minutes to prevent burning.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and immediately sprinkle the roasted almonds with fleur de sel while they are still warm. Let the almonds cool completely on the baking sheet; they will become crisp as they cool.
Once cooled, transfer the maple roasted almonds to an airtight container and store at room temperature for up to two weeks. Serve as a snack or as a topping for salads and desserts.
