Rosemary Roasted Almonds
These roasted almonds are salty, crunchy, and full of fantastic flavor from good olive oil and dried rosemary. You’ll love the amazing aroma of these addicting rosemary roasted almonds as they gently toast in your oven.
Rosemary roasted almonds, paired with a beverage of your choice (I’ll take a beer!), result in snacking perfection. These almonds are an easy spin on my plain olive oil roasted almonds (or if you have a sweet tooth, try cinnamon roasted almonds).

Hi Rachel,
I bought roasted almonds by mistake for this snack – would it be bad to follow the recipe and just roast them again? Or could I just soak the almonds in the olive oil mix and forget roasting? Any suggestions?!
Thanks!
Hi Connory,
I think you’d be better off just enjoying your purchased roasted almonds as they are and then trying this recipe when you have raw almonds. The already roasted ones will likely burn. :)
That’s what I was worried of.. Will do, thanks so much!
Happy to help!

Have enjoyed this recipe numerous times and it is so simple, yet so delicious! My sister & brother-in-law are almond farmers so, fresh, raw nuts are a staple in our house, AND we have fresh rosemary growing. Mixed with Hawaiian salt and EVOO, 20″ in a 350 degree oven (turn at 10″) … as we say in Hawaii “oh so ono!”
So happy to hear you like this recipe! Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment! :)
Seem delicious, but the second round of 10 minutes was too long for my over. The almonds burned. I would recommend watching them after half way through the second 10 minutes.
Sorry to hear that! Oven temperatures can vary so much from oven to oven. Thanks for your feedback and I hope you have better luck next time!
Hi. I soaked my almonds. Should I dry them first and then roast or can I just immediately roast them after I am done with soaking and rinsing. ? And I only have a convection oven. So, how long do you think I need to roast the soaked almonds with just olive oil ?
I’ve never soaked almonds so I’m not sure – I would definitely dry them.
I actually have no idea what I’d have missed before, probably something silly like toast. But now. Well now, I’ll probably miss these!
these nuts sound delicious!! hope your mouth recovers quickly :)
I love almonds and this is such a great way to season them. Hope you feel better soon!
I love snacks like this! Such great flavor yet so simple!
