Well, the Holiday season is upon us, and as we are preparing for christmas…I will be sharing with you some of the foods I will be gifting to friends and family!  These are the first of a long list of items I have to make…

Homemade Traeger Smoked Almonds

2 lbs raw almonds

2 TBS Tamari or Coconut Aminos
1  tsp Worstehire
1/2 tsp Dry Mustard
1 tsp tsp Garlic Powder
1 tsp sea salt
1 tsp coconut palm sugar or 1/2 t honey

Mix everything in a bowl and let marinate for 1 hour. Spread the almonds into a single layer on a disposable aluminum pan.

Set the Traeger on smoke and stir the almonds every 30 min for 1 hour

Turn the heat up to 300 degrees and stir frequently until the almonds are roasted(25-30 minutes)

*double or triple the recipe to give away, or freeze in an air-tight containerfor later use!

*If you dont have a traeger grill, get one….but in the meantime, you can add some liquid smoke to the marinade and roast nuts in your oven.
