Buttery Almonds
These sweet and savory almonds are a wonderful addition to salads, vegetables and party dips. They only take a few minutes to make and can be stored in a jar and will stay fresh for weeks
Ingredients
- 2 cups sliced almonds
- 1 Tbsp butter
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- brown sugar
- kosher salt
Instructions
- Saute almond slices in a large skillet in butter and Olive oil over medium heat
- Sprinkle the nuts liberally with brown sugar and Kosher salt.
- The brown sugar will melt and caramelize on the nuts. Stir often and watch carefully so the nuts don’t burn. Don't walk away, this literally only takes 3-4 minutes
- When they have begun to brown turn out onto wax paper or foil to cool. Store in a jar in your pantry or freezer. Makes 2 cups.
Notes
I buy the almonds in bulk at Costco and keep the big bag in the freezer. I make a fresh jar of these every few weeks to be handy for cooking.
