- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 tablespoon raw honey
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the lime juice, lime zest, chili powder, cayenne pepper, sea salt, raw honey, and olive oil. Whisk these ingredients together until fully combined.
Step 3
Add the raw almonds to the bowl and toss them in the lime and spice mixture until they are completely coated.
Step 4
Spread the coated almonds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the almonds are lightly browned and fragrant.
Step 6
Remove the almonds from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheet. They will continue to crisp up as they cool.
Step 7
Once cooled, serve the almonds as a snack or store them in an airtight container for up to two weeks.
