Almonds Sliced Natural are cut into thin, wide, oval-shaped, nearly transparent unblanched chips, with traces of skin being present in some of the slices, resulting in a stronger almond flavor that is both nuttier and heartier than their blanched counterparts. Providing iron, antioxidants, protein, calcium, and cholesterol lowering monounsaturated fats, Almonds Sliced Natural are healthy and essential ingredients for many baked goods including biscotti and various types of cookies and cakes.
