Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups raw almonds
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the raw almonds, olive oil, and salt. Stir well to ensure the almonds are evenly coated.
Spread the almonds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the almonds for 12-15 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even roasting.
Keep a close eye on the almonds during the last few minutes of roasting to prevent burning. They should turn a light golden brown and release a nutty aroma.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the almonds cool completely on the baking sheet. Cooling will allow them to crisp up.
Once cooled, transfer the roasted almonds to an airtight container for storage. They can be kept at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
