Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need for this recipe:

Almonds: The base of the recipe that provides healthy fats, plant-based protein, fibre, vitamin E, and magnesium for a satisfying and nourishing snack.

Oil: Helps the seasonings coat the almonds evenly while supporting a crisp roasted texture.

Salt: Enhances the flavour and balances the nuttiness of the almonds.

Garlic Powder: Adds savoury flavour and depth while complementing the natural roasted flavour of the almonds.

Kitchenware

You’ll also need:

• Mixing bowl
• Measuring spoons
• Baking sheet or tray
• Parchment paper (optional)
• Spoon or spatula

Steps

1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F.
2. Season the almonds: In a mixing bowl, toss together the almonds, oil, salt, and garlic powder until evenly coated.
3. Arrange on baking tray: Spread the almonds evenly onto a baking sheet or tray in a single layer.
4. Roast the almonds: Bake for 15–17 minutes, stirring halfway through if desired, until lightly golden and fragrant.
5. Cool and enjoy: Allow the almonds to cool completely. As they cool, you may hear them crackle as they crisp up.

Tips & Notes

• Keep a close eye on the almonds near the end of the baking time, as nuts can burn quickly.
• Feel free to customize the flavour with spices like paprika, black pepper, chili powder, or cinnamon.
• Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for a longer shelf life.
• These almonds work well as a snack on their own or added to salads, grain bowls, or snack mixes.
