Ingredients

Quantities are shown as originally provided.

  • 1 pot of water (enough to cover almonds plus one inch)
  • 1/4 cup almonds
  • 3-4 tablespoons honey (plus more if desired)

Instructions

  1. 1

    *First, we need to blanch the almonds so we can easily remove their skin.*

  2. 2

    Bring a pot of water to a boil on high heat.

  3. 3

    Add almonds and let boil for 60 seconds.

  4. 4

    Pour over strainer to catch almonds and rinse them under cold water to cool and stop cooking.

  5. 5

    Remove the skin from the almonds. You’ll find you can more or less pinch them and they should slide right out.

  6. 6

    Dry with paper towel, should be as dry as possible.

  7. 7

    Add almonds and 2 tablespoons honey to a saucepan over medium-low heat.

  8. 8

    Cook until almonds get a little golden, and remove.

  9. 9

    Pour half of almonds with honey into 2 small bowls, top with extra honey if desired.

  10. 10

    Let almonds and honey cool, about 10-15 minutes, and enjoy!
