Instructions
Oven method:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
- Add whole, slivered, or sliced almonds in a single layer. Roast whole almonds 10 to 15 minutes or slivered and sliced almonds for 8 to 12 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent scorching. Oven temperatures may vary, so keep an eye on the almonds so they don't burn.
- Remove from oven and chop or use as desired. Or, store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
Stove top method:
- In a medium skillet over medium-low heat, heat almonds until browned and fragrant, stirring occasionally, about 3 to 5 minutes.
- Remove from skillet and chop or use as desired. Or, store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
Microwave method:
- On a microwave-safe plate, spread almonds in a single, even layer. Microwave in 1-minute intervals until lightly golden and toasted.
- Remove from plate and chop or use as desired. Or, store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

Notes
- Store raw or roasted almonds in a jar with a lid at room temperature in your pantry for 2 to 4 months. For best results and longest shelf life, store raw and roasted almonds in the refrigerator or freezer for up to 6 months.
- Almonds: Cooking times vary depending on which method you choose. And keep an eye on your almonds! They can go from zero to burnt in under a minute. Don't walk away.
- Oil or butter: Roasting in fat is optional for plain almonds and helpful when you want to add spices and seasonings. If using, toss with almonds before roasting in the oven or microwave, or heat in skillet.
- Yield: 1 cup of whole almonds weighs about 5 ounces. 1 cup of sliced or slivered almonds weighs about 3 ounces.
- Storage: Store raw or roasted almonds in a jar with a lid at room temperature in your pantry for 2 to 4 months. For best results and longest shelf life, store raw and roasted almonds in the refrigerator or freezer for up to 6 months.
