Stir in thyme leaves. Remove from heat. Season with salt and pepper. Spread out on a rimmed baking sheet, and let cool completely. Almonds can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 2 weeks.
This recipe came out great! I made it for my sorority's formal tea and I think they taste great. I couldn't find blanched almonds at the store though so I use normal, raw almonds.
I just made three pounds so I certainly hope they like them!!
I love to make new things, such as these. My family will love this as a snack.
