Pepperoni Almonds

Nuts & Seeds

Smoky, pepperoni-seasonsed almond slices for sprinkling on salads, bowls, pizza, or a charcuterie board.

Yield: 1 batch
Pepperoni Almonds

Notes

Season to taste. I add about 3 1/2 tsp pepperoni seasoning.

The time needed to set the seasonings will vary. You could even just use an oven heated up for a minute and turned off to allow the residual heat to dry the seasoning.

When adding to pizza, add after baking the pizza.

Ingredients

  • Wet ingredients:
  • 2 1/4 tsp low sodium soy sauce
  • 1/2 tsp liquid smoke (e.g. hickory)
  • 1/4 tsp maple syrup
  • Dry ingredients:
  • 1/2 cup sliced almonds
  • 3-4 tsp pepperoni seasoning

Instructions

  1. Mix the wet ingredients gently with the almonds.
  2. Mix in 3-4 tsp pepperoni seasoning, to taste.
  3. Dry in an air fryer or oven with dehydrate setting at 115°F about 1 hour until dry. Break apart clumped nuts at 30 and 45 mins in.
  4. Store cooled to room temperature in a glass jar for several weeks.
