Questions about Toasted almonds
How do you toast almonds in the oven?
Spread them in a single layer on a baking tray and toast at 180°C for 8–10 minutes, stirring once. Take them out when they smell nutty and look lightly golden; they continue to crisp as they cool.
How should you store toasted almonds?
Cool them completely, then keep them in an airtight jar in a cool, dark cupboard. For longer storage, freeze them in a sealed container; thaw before using so condensation does not soften them.
What can you eat toasted almonds with?
Scatter them over porridge, yoghurt, salads or roasted vegetables, or fold chopped almonds into rice and couscous. They also add crunch to cakes, biscuits and desserts such as fruit crumble.
Can you use toasted almonds instead of raw almonds?
Yes, especially in salads, baking and sauces where a roasted flavour is welcome. If a recipe asks you to toast the almonds as a separate step, skip that step or they may become bitter.
How many toasted almonds is a sensible portion?
A small handful, about 30 g, is a useful portion to start with. That provides 174 kcal; eating them straight from a large bag makes it easy to lose track of how much you have had.
What kind of fat is in toasted almonds?
Most of the fat is unsaturated: toasted almonds contain 53 g of total fat and 4.1 g of saturated fat per 100 g. Their fat content makes a small handful filling.
Can toasted almonds trigger an allergy?
Yes. Almonds are tree nuts and can cause allergic reactions, including severe ones. Avoid them if you have an almond allergy, and take care with loose crumbs or shared utensils when serving someone who does.
