Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 cup Almonds
- 2 Tbsp Butter
- 1 tsp Pepper black, freshly cracked
- 1/2 tsp Himalayan Salt or to taste, pink
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures even roasting and a perfect crunch.
- In a medium bowl, combine the almonds and melted butter. Toss until the almonds are evenly coated.
- Spread the almonds in a single layer on a baking sheet. This prevents steaming and promotes even browning.
- Roast for 8-10 minutes, or until fragrant and lightly golden. Keep a close eye on them to avoid burning.
- Remove the almonds from the oven and immediately transfer them to a bowl. Tossing them while still warm helps the salt and pepper adhere evenly.
- Season with freshly cracked black pepper and Himalayan pink salt. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
- Let the almonds cool completely before storing in an airtight container. Enjoy as a snack or with tea or coffee.
Recipe Notes
Good To Know
- Use less salt than you would normally.
- For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of smoked paprika or roasted cumin powder along with the black pepper before roasting.
- For a vegan version, substitute the butter with coconut oil or a high-quality neutral oil.
- To ensure maximum crunch, allow the roasted almonds to cool completely on a wire rack after baking.
Expert Tips
- Don't overcrowd the pan when roasting the almonds. Ensure they are in a single layer for even browning.
- For a sweeter treat, toss the almonds with a little honey or maple syrup after roasting (while still warm) and before cooling.
- Experiment with different spices! Cinnamon, garlic powder, or onion powder can create unique and delicious flavor combinations.
Storage Instructions
- Store the cooled almonds in an airtight container with a small packet of food-safe silica gel or a few grains of uncooked rice to help absorb any excess moisture and prolong their shelf life.
