  2. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup of almonds, 2 tablespoons of melted coconut oil, 1/4 cup of maple syrup, and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Stir until the almonds are evenly coated.
  3. Spread the almond mixture in a single layer on a baking sheet.
  4. Bake for 15 minutes, stirring halfway through, until golden brown and fragrant.
  5. Remove from oven and let cool slightly.

  7. Let cool completely before serving. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
