Ingredients
2 ½cupsraw almondsskin on
½cupolive oil
Smoked sea salt to tasteI used Salish Alderwood Smoked Sea Salt from SaltWorks, Inc
Heat the oil in a large cast iron skillet or other heavy skillet over medium-hot heat. When the oil is hot but not smoking add the nuts and cook stirring occasionally. As you cook you may want to turn the heat down.
Cook until the nuts start to color and are toasted through, 6-7 minutes.
Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a plate lined with paper towels.
Sprinkle on as much salt as you like! (You can also use other fun flavored salts instead.)
Serve warm or cool and store in a container with a tight fitting lid.
