Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups raw almonds
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional, finely chopped)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a bowl, combine the raw almonds, olive oil, garlic powder, and salt. Mix well to evenly coat the almonds with the seasoning.
Spread the almonds in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and toast the almonds for 8-10 minutes, stirring once halfway through to ensure even toasting.
Remove the almonds from the oven once they are golden brown and fragrant. Be careful not to overtoast them as they can burn quickly.
Allow the almonds to cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet. They will become crunchier as they cool.
If desired, sprinkle with finely chopped fresh parsley for a fresh burst of flavor.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
