We've all been there - craving a snack that's crunchy, sweet, or maybe even a little spicy. Sometimes we choose unhealthy munching options without even thinking; other times, we crave that perfect sweet-and-spicy mix that satisfies every taste bud. But instead of empty calories, honey-roasted nuts come in. They bring the best of both worlds: a caramelized sweetness, a hint of salt, and just the right amount of crunch. Each bite delivers a rich, nutty flavor coated in a golden, sticky glaze that’s impossible to resist.
Honey-roasted nuts aren’t just delicious - they’re also a great alternative to heavily processed snacks. Packed with protein, fiber, and healthy fats, they provide sustained energy without the crash of sugary treats. Plus, they’re incredibly versatile. Enjoy them straight from the bag, sprinkle them over yogurt or oatmeal, or even toss them into a salad for an unexpected burst of flavor. And if you love a bit of heat, adding a dash of cayenne or chili powder to your homemade batch can take them to the next level. Whether you're snacking at work, on a road trip, or just lounging at home, honey-roasted nuts are the ultimate go-to treat!
Honey Cinnamon Roasted Almonds
When snack time hits and you can't decide what to eat, it's nice to have a selection of easy and healthy options to munch on. A favorite snack when you're in the mood for something simple and satisfying is definitely honey-roasted nuts.
Ingredients:
1 cup raw almonds
2 tablespoons honey
1/4 teaspoon Pride of India Chili Powder
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Combine the ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the honey, garlic salt, cinnamon powder, and chili powder. Stir until well combined.
Coat the almonds: Add the almonds to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated in the honey mixture.
Spread and bake: Spread the almonds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 20-30 minutes until golden brownish and fragrant. Keep close watch to prevent almonds from burning.
Cool and enjoy: Remove the almonds from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheet. They will crisp up as they cool.
Tips:
Adjust the spices: Feel free to adjust the amount of chili powder to your liking. If you want it extra spicy, add a pinch more!
Storage: Store the honey-roasted almonds in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
Tangy twist: Sprinkle lemon pepper seasoning or chat masala for a tangy twist!
Other nuts: This recipe works great with other snack nuts like cashews, pecans, or walnuts.
Enjoy your homemade honey cinnamon roasted almonds with a delicious and healthy kick!
