Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine olive oil and honey. Stir thoroughly to create a smooth coating mixture.
Add the raw almonds to the bowl and toss them in the honey-oil mixture until all almonds are evenly coated.
Spread the coated almonds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they aren't crowded to allow even roasting.
Sprinkle salt and brown sugar evenly over the almonds to enhance their flavor and add a hint of sweetness.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the almonds for 12-15 minutes, stirring them halfway through to ensure an even golden-brown toast.
When the almonds are fragrant and golden, remove them from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes. They will crisp up as they cool.
Once cooled, transfer the roasted toasted almonds to an airtight container or serve immediately as a snack.
