How to Make Jalapeno Almonds

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. In a small saucepan over low heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter.
  3. Stir in 1 tablespoon of your favorite jalapeno pepper sauce (adjust to your spice preference), 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon Dijon mustard.
  4. In a large roasting pan, add 2 cups of whole almonds and pour the butter mixture over them. Toss gently to coat the almonds evenly.
  5. Bake for 45-50 minutes, stirring every 10-15 minutes, until the almonds are golden brown and the liquid is completely absorbed.
  6. Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack to prevent sticking.
  7. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
