Crunchy Keto BBQ Spiced Almonds Healthy Snack Treat

Crunchy Keto BBQ spiced almonds are a fun and tasty snack. They are great for anyone on a keto diet. You get healthy fats and protein without the carbs. Plus, they are super easy to make at home.

What are the key ingredients?

- 2 cups raw almonds

- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

- 1 tablespoon smoked paprika

- 1 teaspoon garlic powder

- 1 teaspoon onion powder

- 1 teaspoon ground cumin

- 1 teaspoon chili powder

- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt

- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)

How do you make these almonds?

First, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This helps the almonds roast just right. Next, take a large bowl. Add your raw almonds and pour in the olive oil. Toss the almonds until they are covered in oil. This step is key for the spices to stick.

Then, in another bowl, mix the spices. Combine smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, chili powder, sea salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper if you want heat. Stir them well.

Now, sprinkle this spice mix over the oiled almonds. Toss them again until all almonds are coated. This gives them that rich BBQ flavor we love.

Next, line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the almonds in a single layer. This way, they roast evenly. Bake them for 15-20 minutes. Stir them every five minutes to avoid burning. They are done when they smell amazing and turn golden brown.

Once baked, take them out and let them cool. As they cool, they become crunchier.

How can you serve them?

You can serve these almonds in a small bowl or a cute jar. For extra flair, sprinkle some sea salt on top and add fresh herbs like parsley. These nuts are perfect for parties or as a salad topping. Enjoy your crunchy snack!
