Snacks you depend on to get you through those between meal periods can get repetitive and put you into an eating slump. They just get boring sometimes! Almonds, or nuts in general are one of those snacks - they are great for you, do wonders, give you that nutrition you need to keep you going, but they just get plain and boring. Try out these sweet roasted nuts that have a little kick to them next time! Oh... and they kinda taste nice with a nice cold beverage in the summer :)
Ingredients
4 Cups Almonds (or you can have a mixture of different ones!)
1/2 Cup Raw Honey
3/4 Tsp Cayenne Pepper
3/4 Tsp Kosher Salt
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, and lightly grease it with coconut oil, or other oil you may have. Since you are working with honey, you don't want it to stick and rip the paper.
- Pre-heat the oven to 325 degrees.
- In a saucepan, melt the honey over medium-low heat - ensure it doesn't boil. Add in the nuts and the cayenne pepper and completely coat all the nuts with the melted honey.
- Pour honey-nut mixture onto the baking sheet and spread out evenly into a single layer.
- Bake for approximately 10 minutes and remove from the oven. Immediately place the nuts in a large bowl and toss with the salt. Place it back down on the baking sheet and allow to cool.
- Occasionally stir them around to prevent clumping. Once cooled - eat up or store into snack packs!
