Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups raw almonds
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon liquid smoke
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, kosher salt, and liquid smoke. Mix well to form a marinade.
Add the raw almonds to the bowl and toss them thoroughly in the marinade until evenly coated.
Spread the coated almonds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet to ensure even cooking.
Bake the almonds in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes to prevent burning and ensure uniform smoking.
Remove the almonds from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheet. They will become crisp as they cool.
Once fully cooled, store the smoked almonds in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks, though they likely won't last that long!
