Benefit of Almonds

W

Almonds!!!!!!! 

• Very high in vitamin E. 
• Beneficial in protecting against cancer, heart disease, heart attacks and strokes, arthritis, infertility, and skin problems. 
• Great snack to manage hunger and maintain blood sugar levels. 
• Good source of calcium. 
• High in monounsaturated fats to protect the heart. ❤️.

I like to soak them in coconut water with a bit of cinnamon. I usually soak them at least overnight.  You can use the coconut water later for a smoothie. 😀

Make sure to get almonds still in their skin. Keep in the refrigerator.

Here is a recipe we love to pack in lunches or gobble as a snack. 😃

Oven Baked Cinnamon Almonds

2 cups soaked almonds

     
( I like to soak mine in coconut water and cinnamon at least overnight). Amazing flavor just like this, but if you want to have a bit of fun…continue on 😊


¼ powdered sugar


1 teaspoon of cinnamon


Dash of salt


Dash of cayenne

Drain water off of almonds and save for a smoothie later. 😃


Dry off almonds completely and place in a container with lid or ziplock bag. 
Add the powdered sugar and shake shake shake. 💃🏾

Line cookie sheet with parchment paper and place almonds on sheet. 


Smooth almonds into one layer. 


Bake at 325 for 15-20 minutes. 

Just until the powdered sugar crystallizes onto almonds. 

While almonds baking mix salt and cayenne in small bowl. 


Remove from oven and sprinkle with cayenne salt mixture while warm.
