Ingredients
- 1 pound roasted, salted Marcona almonds
- 2 teaspoons good olive oil
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh thyme leaves
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon fleur de sel
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Place the almonds, olive oil, thyme, and kosher salt on a sheet pan and toss them together. Roast the almonds for 10 to 15 minutes, turning them every 5 minutes with a metal spatula, until they’re lightly browned. Watch them carefully; they go from under baked to burnt very quickly. Sprinkle with the fleur de sel, toss, and set aside to cool. Serve warm or at room temperature.

I first made this recipe several years ago to bring to an outdoor symphony concert. I was really surprised how much everyone loved these! They were the first item to go. And yes, it’s already roasted and salted Marcona almonds covered in olive oil, fresh thyme, and two types of salt. AND IT IS AMAZING! Since a pound of Marcona almonds is quite expensive, I save this for special occasions. They never disappoint! Thanks, Ina!
Love these! I couldn’t stop eating them and they’re great with cocktails.
Ina, I loved, loved, loved, the flavor however, the herbs and salt did not stick to the almonds but fell to the bottom of the bowl. Any suggestions? Thanks Herbalchef
This is a very delicious and very easy recipe to make, and people love it. The almonds can burn fairly quickly though so be sure to keep an eye on them.
These are fantastic – I time putting them in the oven as I see people arriving, so everyone is greeted with the warm almonds – super big hit! Thank you Ina!!
Everyone loved these. Next time would add a bit more olive oil and fresh thyme… maybe a tsp of each. You really do need that much salt!! Easy and tasty.
a great twist on the rosemary roasted nuts that everyone has been doing for a while. Easy and delicious, took them to a party and they were a hit! This will be my new ‘go to’ bar nut recipe.
I’m not a very good cook & worry about salt but love marcona almonds & thyme! This recipe is easy & awesome!
