These maple coconut roasted almonds with maple syrup and coconut flakes are so easy to whip up and have a delicious sweet flavor.
These maple roasted almonds one of my favorite portable snacks. Most of the time I buy whole raw almonds for snacking plain or adding to homemade trail mixes, but other times I crave something with more robust flavor and I get roasted almonds.
Recently I saw that my local health food store had coconut roasted almonds and I knew I needed them in my life. Instead of buying them, I decided to make my own — that way I would have a recipe to share with you all. Always thinking about you guys. 🙂
These babies are good! They’re sweet but not too sweet and the toasted coconut pairs perfectly with the maple syrup and nuttiness of the almonds. I’ve been eating at least a handful a day. I can’t get enough of them.
Fun nutritional facts about almonds: they provide a dose of healthy fat, protein and fiber and are an excellent source of vitamins and minerals, especially vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant.

These maple coconut roasted almonds with maple syrup and coconut flakes are so easy to whip up and have a delicious sweet flavor.
In a medium size bowl, mix together almonds, maple syrup, shredded coconut, vanilla extract and sea salt. Toss until almonds are well coated.
Spread almonds out in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper (or a baking stone) and bake for 10-12 minutes, stirring once half way through the process.
Remove from oven and cool for at least 60 minutes. Store in an air-tight container.
Notes
If you’ve ever roasted your nuts and seeds at home, you’ll know the process is super simple and takes only minutes. Just remember, you do have to keep an eye on them, as they can burn rather quickly.
Let’s just say theses ALMOST didn’t even make to the oven!! They make my heart tippy tappy with a song in it. Great flavor combination. Even better with extra coconut. Thank you.
This just made me so happy reading. 🙂 I’m so glad you enjoyed this recipe, Lynn. Thank you for coming back to leave a comment + star rating. I so appreciate it!
Hi Sarah, I am so happy that you enjoyed this recipe! I’m sure the pepita seeds were a nice addition. Thanks for come back to leave a comment, it means the world to me!
Wow! These look amazing…love the flavor profile! My only concern would be to eat more than one serving…it’s easy to overindulge on nuts and think you’re being healthy!
Thanks Nina. Yeah, it’s definitely easy to over do it with nuts but if you measure out the correct portion (and stick with it) they’re a great snack option.

Has anyone tried a sugar free version yet? Would sugar free pancake syrup work? Thanks
I make these often as they are a tasty and healthy snack. The recipe is also really good with pecans.
