This Lemon And Honey Almonds recipe makes a wonderful snack that is mildly sweet and definitely delicious.
These almonds are great for a take-along snack and easy to prep ahead on your weekend.

This simple snack takes only minutes to prep if you have the lemon zested already!
Tip: When you use fresh lemons, don’t forget to zest them first. Freeze the zest on ice cube trays, and you’ll have “fresh” zest any time you need it for cooking or baking. Just break the “cubes” into a ziplock bag after freezing. 1 cube equals approximately 2 tablespoons, and they defrost quickly or are easy to break up by hand or with a knife.
Recipe Tip
Keep an eye on this in the last 5 minutes of baking. Oven temperatures vary from oven to oven. You don’t want these to burn in the last few minutes. They should simply have a nice, golden-brown look to them when they are done.

Do you think you could use coconut oil?
Sure! Just be sure it’s in liquid form.
Do you need to soak the almonds first?
