Best Low Carb Air Fryer Roasted Nuts

This delicious snack is among the best fall low-carb recipes you can prepare in your air fryer. This fantastic recipe is super nutritious and loaded with healthy fats, fibers, vitamins, and minerals. It only takes 5 minutes of your actual work to put everything together and let your air fryer do the rest. It is also an excellent and healthy snack for the kids and the rest of the family, whether on low-carb or not. Adding some fresh rosemary to the recipe is completely optional, but we highly recommend it (the flavor is absolutely mind-blowing). If you have a smaller air fryer, roast the nuts in several batches (depending on the size of your air fryer), and remember to shake the basket every 5-6 minutes. This way, you will get evenly roasted and perfectly crispy nuts!

Can I roast these nuts in the oven?

Although this recipe falls into our low-carb fall air fryer recipe collection, you can easily prepare it in your oven. Arrange the nuts in a single layer over a baking sheet lined with some parchment paper. Roast for 20 minutes at 170°C (340°F) or until the nuts are lightly browned and crispy (keep an eye on them after 15 minutes).

How do you customize this recipe?

You can easily customize this recipe by adding some other nuts, such as cashews, and adjusting the amounts according to your taste (just remember to log the ingredients separately). You can also use some other fresh herbs or omit the herbs entirely and add more cayenne.

Are nuts low-carb?

Nuts are low in carbs and loaded with healthy fats. They are rich in protein, vitamins, minerals, and fiber, making them an excellent addition to your low-carb and Keto diet. However, they should be eaten in moderation.
