Why pay crazy money to buy canned almonds when you can easily make these at home. They taste better and they are a practically perfect keto snack in terms of the macros.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound (roughly 3 cups) of unsalted almonds

  • 2 packets (or 1/3 tsp) of True Lime dehydrated lime powder

  • 2 tsp wasabi powder

  • 2 tsp fine sea salt

  • 1 TB neutral oil (I use MCT oil)

Directions

  • Grind the lime powder, wasabi and salt in a mortar & pestle or coffee grinder. You want to create a very fine powder that will adhere to the almonds. Once ground, ideally transfer to a seasoning shaker (you can also just sprinkle the seasoning with you fingers).
  • Place a pan on your stove and set to medium-high heat. Add the oil and swirl your pan to coat the bottom.
  • Add the almonds to the pan and toss to coat for about 1 minute, then turn the heat down to medium-low. Cook for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally. When you start to hear them crackle or pop, cook for one more minute.
  • Remove pan from heat and pour almonds onto a cookie sheet lined with paper towels.
  • Immediately, sprinkle the almonds with the seasoning. Apply the seasoning liberally, as a lot of it will fall off.
  • Allow the almonds to cool for at least 90 minutes, then enjoy.

    Why not put nuts in plastic bag to add seasoning?

    Steve:

    First of all, thank you for your recipe.

    Reporting back to provide feedback: I followed your recipe using Bulletproof MCT oil, but I found that heating said MCT oil to ~350F, as recommended in your video, created a smoke bomb and burned the oil to the pan. Checking afterward as to why my results were different from yours, I found that, according to Healthline, “Coconut oil has a smoke point of 350°F (177°C) compared with 302°F (150°C) for MCT oil.” Maybe you were using coconut oil? Or maybe the MCT oil you purchased is actually coconut oil?

  5. Do you think I can use water in place of oil?
