Honey-Roasted Almonds

Ingredients

• 2 cups whole almonds
• 0.25 cups white sugar
• 0.5 teaspoons kosher salt
• 3 tablespoons honey
• 3 tablespoons water
• 1 tablespoon almond oil

Instructions

1. 1

   Gather all ingredients.

2. 2

   Spread almonds in a single layer on a baking sheet and place in a cold oven.

3. 3

   Turn the oven on to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bake almonds, stirring occasionally, until light tan and fragrant, 12 to 15 minutes. The nuts will continue to cook after removing them from the oven.

4. 4

   Meanwhile, mix sugar and salt together in a small bowl; sprinkle 1 tablespoon sugar mixture into a large bowl.

5. 5

   Stir honey, water, and almond oil together in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Add almonds; cook and stir until almonds have absorbed all the liquid, about 5 minutes.

6. 6

   Transfer coated almonds to the large bowl sprinkled with sugar mixture. Sprinkle remaining sugar mixture over almonds; toss to coat evenly.

7. 7

   Spread almonds onto waxed paper to cool completely. Store at room temperature in a tightly covered container or resealable plastic bag.
