Ingredients
- 250 grams Raw almonds
- 60 milliliters White vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Low-sodium sea salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, combine the white vinegar and olive oil. Heat over medium heat until it begins to simmer.
Step 3
Add the raw almonds to the saucepan. Stir well to ensure all almonds are coated with the vinegar and olive oil mixture.
Step 4
Continue to cook for about 2-3 minutes, allowing the almonds to absorb the vinegar flavor.
Step 5
Remove the almonds from the heat and transfer them to a mixing bowl.
Step 6
Sprinkle the garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and low-sodium sea salt over the almonds. Toss until the almonds are evenly coated with the spices.
Step 7
Spread the spiced almonds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the almonds are golden brown and crispy.
Step 9
Remove from the oven and let cool completely on the baking sheet. The almonds will become crunchier as they cool.
Step 10
Once cooled, store the almonds in an airtight container for up to two weeks, or serve them immediately as a delicious heart-healthy snack.
