 Air Fryer Toasted Almonds

Crunchy, golden, and perfectly roasted—Air Fryer Toasted Almonds are the easiest way to elevate a simple snack into something truly irresistible. With just a handful of ingredients and a few minutes in the air fryer, raw almonds transform into fragrant, lightly crisp bites packed with rich, nutty flavor.

Whether you enjoy them as a healthy on-the-go  snack, a crunchy topping for salads and desserts, or a quick addition to your favorite recipes, these toasted almonds are as versatile as they are delicious. Plus, the air fryer makes the process faster and more foolproof than traditional roasting—no more burnt nuts, just perfectly even toasting every time.

 Ingredients:

1 cup raw almonds (skinned or unskinned)

1 teaspoon oil (optional)

Salt to taste

Optional toppings:

Cinnamon and sugar

Paprika or chili powder

Garlic powder

Preparation:

Preheat the air fryer

To 160°C (325°F) for 3 minutes.

Season the almonds

Mix the almonds with the oil (optional) and salt or your preferred seasoning.

Place them in the basket

In a single layer so they toast evenly.

Cook

Bake in the air fryer at 160°C (325°F) for 6-8 minutes.

 Shake the basket halfway through the cooking time.

Cool

Let them rest for a few minutes (they become crispier as they cool).

Tips:

Keep a close eye on them: they can burn quickly.
For a “candied” flavor, add a touch of honey before cooking.
Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
 Result: Golden-brown, crunchy almonds bursting with flavor… perfect for snacks, salads, or as a yogurt topping.
