What is Honey Roasted Almonds:
Almonds are cooked in a honey sauce and then coated with sugar. Traditionally granulated white sugar is used for the honey roasted almonds. But it can be definitely replaced with Brown sugar or Coconut Sugar.
We usually receive goodie bags in Office during festivals either Candied Nuts or Honey Roasted Almonds will be there.
It is like a temptation , As soon as we open the goodies bag the nuts are the ones to disappear first.
Variations in Candied Almonds:
So many variations can be done with these humble Candied Almonds, We can add Cardamom powder or Cinnamon or Nutmeg powder.
Also, cocoa powder can be added to make it as Chocolate Honey Roasted Almonds. I have a similar post coming soon on Chocolate Flavor, So watch this space.
Is it okay to use Almonds with Skin:
The skin of Almonds contains tannins a molecule, which prevents us from using the complete nutrients of Almonds, also skin is hard to digest which is why we soak the almonds and peel the skins, and then consume the Almonds.
However Almond skin has few health benefits, It prevents LDL cholesterol from being oxidized, which is very important for health,
It also lowers the cholesterol level and is good for our Skin.
So yes, Once in a while it is okay to include Almond skin as well in our food.

Hi, I have few of questions :-
1.Roasting of almonds is necessary or it’s ok if we don’t roast them, as my family is not a fan of roasted almonds.
2. Can we use other nuts too along with almonds like pistachios, pecans etc. ?
Thank you

Roasting of almonds adds up to the taste of the dish and I prefer doing it.. But you can definitely experiment with it.
Yes definitely you can use other nuts and a mix of nuts. Make sure you follow the measurements alone correctly..

Love this simple recipe. We eat a lot of almonds at home, usually raw and never roasted. I have some good honey and everything else. I'm going to try this recipe and add new flavors to the almonds at home. Thanks for the inspiration.
