Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups raw almonds
- 1 cup white vinegar
- 1.5 teaspoons sea salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place the raw almonds in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Pour the white vinegar over the almonds, ensuring they are fully submerged. Let them soak for 15 minutes.
After soaking, drain the almonds using a colander and allow them to sit for a couple of minutes to drain thoroughly.
Return the almonds to the mixing bowl, add the olive oil, and toss until evenly coated.
Sprinkle the sea salt over the almonds, tossing them again to ensure an even coating.
Spread the almonds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring once halfway through the cooking time, until the almonds are golden brown and crunchy.
Remove the almonds from the oven and allow them to cool completely on the baking sheet; they will continue to crunch up as they cool.
Transfer the cooled almonds to an airtight container for storage, or enjoy immediately as a delightful snack.
