Having trouble finding a good deal on basic roasted almonds in your local market? Here's how to roast almonds at home to satisfy your hunger.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

  • 1 lb. raw shelled almonds
  • Cookie sheet or shallow baking pan
  • Aluminum foil
  • Vegetable oil
  • Salt
Step1
Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Cover cookie sheet or baking pan with aluminum foil.
Step2
Spread raw almonds over foil in a single layer. Coat nuts with vegetable oil by hand or with a brush and rearrange in a single layer.
Step3
Bake at 350 degrees F for 8 to 10 minutes. When timer rings, remove pan from oven and carefully pull corners of foil into a pouch and place on cool surface of stove or counter top. This helps prevent nuts from getting burned by the pan.
Step4
Salt or season as desired, allow to cool about 10 minutes and store in a glass or porcelain crock.

Tried eatin um with the plastic teeth. . .raw almonds a harder than the dickens. Roastin um makes um crunch up easier. It's the pits gettin old, gotta make all these changes. Cheers

on 2/7/2008 Works very well. I needed them for a cookie recipe. I live in a small town and couldn't find roasted almonds anywhere. They were fantastic.
