This recipe is not worth the effort. There are better ways to make spiced almonds.

I found these almonds to be a bit bland. I think they could use a little more salt.

These almonds are the perfect crunchy snack. They're also a great way to add some extra flavor to salads or trail mix.

These almonds are so easy to make. I just threw all the ingredients in a bowl and roasted them in the oven. They were done in no time.

These spiced almonds are fantastic! They're the perfect balance of sweet, salty, and savory. I love the crunch of the almonds and the way the spices linger in my mouth.
