Oven Roasted Whole Almonds

Almonds are the edible seeds of the almond tree, native to the Middle East and South Asia. "Oven roasted whole almonds" are almonds that have been heated in an oven, often with oil and salt, to enhance their flavor and texture.

Almonds are commonly eaten as a snack, either salted or unsalted, and are also used in baked goods, trail mixes, and as a topping for desserts and savory dishes. Roasting brings out their nutty flavor and makes them more crunchy.

Almonds are a good source of healthy fats, fiber, protein, vitamins, and minerals. They are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. While almonds are nutrient-dense, they are also calorie-dense, so portion control is often advised for weight management. JECFA and EFSA have evaluated almonds as a food ingredient.
