Recipes

Below are a collection of recipes using our almonds for you to try and enjoy at home 

01

Flavored Roasted Almonds

Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in large Pyrex bowl. Add about 1 1/2 quarts of almonds, stir and coat with butter. (olive oil can be substituted.) Heat for 2 min on high in microwave, and then stir. Repeat 2-3 times. Sprinkle with a mixture of 1/3 salt, 1/3 sugar, 1/3 garlic powder. (I make up a small jar, and it lasts most of the year.) They are lower in sodium, and people love them and can’t figure out what the ingredients are!

SERVINGS: 4 CUPS Per cup: Calories: 112, Fat: 9g, Carbohydrates: 4g, Fiber: 1g, Protein: 4g Ingredients 1 cup almonds (1/2 lb- suggest ½ Nonpareil, ½ Monterey variety), soaked in water for 6-12 hours 4 cups water Instructions (Video if you prefer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WeZCMNB2YO0 ) Drain the soaked almonds and rinse them well. (Discard the soaking water.) Combine all of the almonds and fresh water (4 cups) in a blender, and blend until the almonds have broken down and the milk looks creamy. Strain the almond milk through a nut-milk bag or cheese cloth, squeezing well to extract the extra liquid. You can save the remaining almond pulp for another recipe, or discard. Store the almond milk in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. (You can freeze leftovers, if needed, for up to 3 months, too!) Recipe Notes For a sweetened almond milk, try adding up to 4 dates for the batch, then strain as directed. For a flavored almond milk, feel free to add a splash of vanilla extract for a vanilla milk, or 1 to 2 tablespoons of cacao powder for a chocolate milk. (Sweeten with dates or maple syrup, to taste.) For an extra-special treat, try adding 1 tablespoon of coconut oil, 1 tablespoon of vanilla, and 2 tablespoons of maple syrup or 2 pitted dates to the mixture before blending. The resulting almond milk is extra-creamy, sweet, and irresistible!

Traditional Italian Almond Biscotti

Satisfyingly firm rather than jaw-breakingly hard and are chock-full of toasted whole almonds and laced with fragrant orange zest. They are ideal for dunking in a mug of hot coffee. This recipe calls for 3 jumbo-sized eggs. If you can't find them, then use 4 large eggs.


One of many potential riffs on the Traditional Italian Almond Biscotti is a chocolate-dipped version.


Makes about 36 biscotti (3/4-inch-wide cookies)
3 cups unsalted whole almonds
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3 jumbo eggs (or 4 large eggs), plus 1 egg, lightly beaten, for brushing tops of loaves
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Zest of 1 large orange (1 to 2 teaspoons)
Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees. Line 2 large baking sheets with
parchment paper.
Place almonds in a single layer on a baking sheet and toast in the 350-degree oven for 10 minutes. Remove and set
aside.
In a large bowl, hand mix toasted almonds, sugars, cinnamon, baking powder and flour.
In a small bowl, whisk eggs. Add the vanilla and orange zest and whisk until well blended. Add to the flour mixture. Stir a
few times. Work the batter together with lightly floured hands. The mixture will be sticky, but persevere. Keep
squeezing the batter with your hands until a dough starts to form. Once the dough is firm, form a ball. Divide the ball into 4 equal pieces.
