Ingredients
- 2 cups raw unsalted whole almonds
- 1 tablespoon avocado oil *see notes
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt or kosher salt *see notes
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Add the almonds to a bowl, then pour the avocado oil over the almonds. Stir until the almonds are all completely coated. Spread the almonds into a single layer on the parchment lined baking sheet. Place the baking sheet onto the center rack of your preheated oven and roast for 10 minutes.
- While the nuts are roasting, add the seasoned salt and garlic powder to a small bowl and stir to combine.
- Once the almonds have roasted for 10 minutes, carefully remove from oven. Stir the almonds, sprinkle with the garlic salt mixture, then stir again to coat them with the seasoning.
- Place the seasoned almonds back into the oven and continue roasting them for an additional 4-6 minutes. Watch them carefully after 4 minutes so they do not burn.
- Remove the almonds from the oven and allow them to cool completely on the baking sheet. Do a taste test and sprinkle with additional salt if desired.
- Serve fresh or store them in an airtight container.
Notes
- avocado oil - you can also use olive oil as a substitute. I like to use avocado oil since it has a higher smoke point.
- Kosher or sea salt can be used as a substitute for seasoned salt. I personally prefer kosher salt. You can also sprinkle the nuts with some additional salt, once finished, if you would like them to be saltier. I sprinkle them with an additional 1/4 tsp of kosher salt sometimes.
