Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 7

¼ cup white sugar
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 ½ cups whole almonds

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spread the almonds onto a baking sheet, and toast until the nuts start to turn golden brown and become fragrant, about 10 minutes. Watch the nuts carefully as they bake: they burn quickly.

  • Roast the almonds until they are fragrant and golden brown. This will take about 15-20 minutes.
  • Let the almonds cool completely before serving. This will help them to crisp up.
  • Store the almonds in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
