How to toast nuts


Method:

Heat oven to 350F. Spread nuts in an ungreased shallow pan. Bake 6-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until light brown.Watch carefully because nuts brown quickly.

It can also be toasted in an ungreased heavy skillet over medium heat 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently until nuts begin to brown, then stirring constantly until light brown.

Tips:
  1. I toasted some almonds using the skillet method. In about 3 minutes on medium heat, the almonds started to brown, so be careful and stir constantly.
  2. The almonds in the picture were just toasted for about 5 minutes.
