2. You can substitute vegetable oil for almond or coconut oil.

3. You may bake the almonds in an OTG for about 12 to 15 minutes @ 175° C without pre heating.

4. You can roast the almonds in an Air Fryer also for about 6 to 8 minutes without pre heating. Just make sure to spread almonds in single layer and shake the basket half way through for even roasting.

5. If you like vanilla flavor, then add to the honey, water, oil mixture.

6. Cinnamon powder works well when added to the sugar and salt mix. Even red chilli powder adds the zing. You may try these variations.
