Back in my weight watcher days I used to eat the 100 calorie packs of flavored almonds almost daily. After giving up on weight watchers years ago, I pretty much forgot about these little treats.
I recently rediscovered them and fell in love with some of the savory flavors (Habanero BBQ is the best!) Unfortunately, it’s hard to find the sweet varieties without excessive amounts of sugar.
I decided to make my own and they turned out delicious! I also love that I can’t control the level of sweetness since I’ve been trying to avoid sweets.
These almonds are ready in about 30 minutes from start to finish and are amazing fresh out of the oven! Feel free to sub with your favorite sweetener, just be sure to adjust the amount used accordingly 🙂
