Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 3 cup raw whole almonds
- 0.33 cup pure maple syrup warm slightly if very thick
- 1 tbsp melted coconut oil or another neutral oil
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 0.5 tsp fine sea salt
- 0.13 tsp cayenne pepper optional, for gentle heat
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Preheat oven to 325°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Warm maple syrup and coconut oil in a small saucepan just until fluid, about 30 seconds.
- Stir in cinnamon, vanilla, salt, and cayenne until smooth.
- Toss almonds with the warm maple mixture in a bowl until evenly coated.
- Spread almonds in a single layer on the prepared sheet.
- Bake 18–22 minutes, stirring halfway, until glossy then dry to the touch and deepened in color.
- Cool completely on the sheet. Break apart any clusters before storing.
Notes
For extra flair, finish warm almonds with a pinch of flaky sea salt or a sprinkle of orange zest. Swap cinnamon for pumpkin pie spice, or add chopped rosemary for a savory twist. Store airtight at room temperature for up to 2 weeks; re-crisp on a sheet pan at 300°F for 5 minutes if needed.
