Use almonds in a range of beautiful cakes, tarts, condiments, and savory dishes. Their delicate nutty flavor pairs well with fruits, such as cherries and pears.
If you thought almonds were just a simple stir-in for salads, you’ve woefully underestimated them. We’re going nuts over these delicious treats. With recipes from dips to casseroles to streusel toppings to desserts, pretty much everything is better with almonds. You can buy them bagged in slivers and store them in the freezer to keep them fresh so that you always have a handful around when you need it.
For example, you can use almonds for Almond-crusted Chicken, Raspberry-Almond Streusel Muffins, delicious Spiced Banana-Almond Smoothie, Smoky Almond-Parsley Pesto, Almond Toffee Popcorn, Cranberry-Almond Coleslaw, Almond-Crusted Trout with Dill, Blackberry Cobbler with Almond-Ginger Biscuits, and even Marcona-Rosemary Ice Cream Sandwiches.
But should your dog have almonds? Probably not.
