Number Of Ingredients 7

1 large egg white
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon smoked hot or sweet Spanish paprika
2 cups blanched Marcona almonds (10 ounces)

parchment paper

Steps:

  • Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 350°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment.
  • Whisk together egg white, salt, cumin, and paprika in a bowl, then add almonds and toss to coat. Spread almonds evenly on baking sheet and roast until golden, about 20 minutes.
