Roast some almonds for the festive season. They're coated in Christmassy spices but you can also try a Spanish twist by using sweet and smoked paprika instead

Yield Makes 8 x 30g portions

Number Of Ingredients 8

oil , for the tray
15g demerara sugar
good pinch of flaky sea salt
50g honey
250g raw skinned almonds
½ tsp ground cinnamon
½ tsp nutmeg
½ tsp five spice

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Line a baking tray with lightly oiled baking parchment. Mix the sugar and salt in a large bowl and set aside.
  • Melt the honey in a frying pan over a low heat. Add the almonds and spices and stir to coat. Transfer the nuts to the baking tray and spread them out in a single layer. Bake for 10-15 mins until golden brown, scraping the nuts from the side to the centre from time to time so they cook and colour evenly.
  • Remove from the oven and cool slightly for 5 mins until the nuts become sticky, then toss them in the sugar and salt mixture. Cool completely, then divide them between cellophane bags.
