Get ready to satisfy your sweet and crunchy craving in under 15 minutes. The Kitchen Bucket List has a quick way to roast almonds with chocolate.
Equipment
- Air Fryer
- Mixing Bowl
Ingredients
- 1 bag (16 oz) raw almonds, approximately 3 cups
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 5 tablespoons cacao powder, divided
- 1 tablespoon honey
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, mix the almonds and maple syrup. Stir until all almonds are coated.
- Sprinkle 3 tablespoons of cacao powder.
- With a wood spoon, mix until all almonds are covered with cacao powder.
- Pour into the basket of the air fryer.
- Air fry at 320℉ for 4 minutes.
- Shake the basket and cook for an additional 4 minutes. The chocolate roasted almonds are done once they are hot and soft.
- Pour back into the mixing bowl and add 1 tablespoon of honey. Mix until all almonds are covered.
- Mix in the last 2 tablespoons of cacao powder. Pour into a cookie sheet to cool completely.
- Serve and Enjoy!
Notes
- Even with lightly slated almonds I would still add 1/8 teaspoon of salt.
- Choose the cacao powder of your choice. I like to use raw cacao powder.
- When roasting almonds in the air fryer it is important to shake the basket. This will allow for a more even roasting.
- When storing the chocolate roasted almonds use an airtight container. The roasted almonds are good for 4 to 5 days.
