These olive oil and rosemary roasted almonds are an irresistible snack that you can actually feel good about eating!

Sometimes I do crazy things.

Crazy things like making these olive oil and rosemary roasted almonds the same week I have oral surgery.

So here I am toothless (okay, just missing one tooth in the back of my mouth). The house smells of the amazing aroma of these addicting rosemary roasted almonds. Salty, crunchy, and full of fantastic flavor from good olive oil and dried rosemary. I try one (or a few), for quality assurance purposes of course, and find out three things:

  1. They’re dang good.
  2. My mouth is not ready for crunchy almonds.
  3. I am sad.

These rosemary roasted almonds, paired with a beverage of your choice (I’ll take a beer!), result in snacking perfection. Luckily, I have a husband who will be able to enjoy that. And probably my neighbors too. I’ll just have to wait until next time.

You will love these rosemary roasted almonds!

    I made these last night and they are delicious but still sticky. What might I be doing wrong?

      Hmm, they shouldn’t be sticky at all. Were they a little greasy? That tends to soak in as they cool.

    Hi Rachel,

    I bought roasted almonds by mistake for this snack – would it be bad to follow the recipe and just roast them again? Or could I just soak the almonds in the olive oil mix and forget roasting? Any suggestions?!

    Thanks!

      Hi Connory,
      I think you’d be better off just enjoying your purchased roasted almonds as they are and then trying this recipe when you have raw almonds. The already roasted ones will likely burn. :)

    Have enjoyed this recipe numerous times and it is so simple, yet so delicious! My sister & brother-in-law are almond farmers so, fresh, raw nuts are a staple in our house, AND we have fresh rosemary growing. Mixed with Hawaiian salt and EVOO, 20″ in a 350 degree oven (turn at 10″) … as we say in Hawaii “oh so ono!”

    Seem delicious, but the second round of 10 minutes was too long for my over. The almonds burned. I would recommend watching them after half way through the second 10 minutes.

      Sorry to hear that! Oven temperatures can vary so much from oven to oven. Thanks for your feedback and I hope you have better luck next time!
