My name is Cassie and I'm addicted to air frying. I'm on a mission to try ALL THE THINGS in my air fryer and one of my recent favourites has been roasting almonds!

An air fryer is a kitchen appliance that uses convection to rapidly circulate hot air around food to cook and crisp it up. It’s essentially a mini convection oven that fits perfectly on your countertop.
I've found that cooking for 8 minutes on 180C / 350F is perfect, however, all air fryers are different. Give your almonds a good shake after cooking for 5 minutes and assess. Then check in every minute after that. Almonds can go from almost done to burnt very quickly so it's best to keep a close eye on them.
Add the almonds into a single layer in the air fryer basket and cook on 180C / 350F for 5 minutes. Give the basket a good shake and continue cooking, checking every minute, until they are done.
Move to a bowl to allow them to cool fully. Once cooled, store them in an airtight jar or container.
Air fryer roasted almonds will stay fresh in an airtight jar or container at room temperature for months.
Roasted almonds are great as a snack on their own. For a delicious dessert try using them to make Chocolate Covered Almonds.
They can also be chopped up and mixed into cereal and yogurt. Or on top of Easy Stovetop Banana Oatmeal. They also make great salad toppers – this Roast Pumpkin, Spinach and Feta Salad is a great option.
