    Toasted Almond Crunch Desserts

    This cookie crumble is perfect for your summer and fall desserts, over cakes, pies, bars, ice cream, doughnuts, muffins, yogurt, or even oatmeal. 

    What are the ingredients in no bake toasted almond crunch?

    This shelf stable recipe uses just two ingredients. Toasted sliced almonds and golden oreos.

    Toasted Almonds - You can find already toasted almonds easily on the grocery store shelves. Also, if you want more almond flavor, add more toasted almond crumbles than the recipe calls for. 

    Vanilla Cream Filled Cookies - I used regular Golden Oreos but double stuffed is better and gives a more crumbled look.

    How to toast sliced almonds?

    Sliced almonds can be toasted two ways on the stovetop or in bulk in the oven. 

    Stovetop Method- Dry skillet on medium heat for about 5 minutes. Toast to your desired color, but keep an eye on them because they can burn easily. 

    Oven Method- Preheat the oven to about 375 degrees. Place sliced almonds on a metal baking tray, in a single layer. Bake in the middle rack for about 6-8 minutes. Remove when baked to your desired color. They smell amazing. 

    How to Make Toasted Almond Crunch Topping 

    Step 1- Crumble - Use a food processor or small blender to crumble the toasted almonds and vanilla cookies separately.

    Step 2 - Mix - Place both crumbles in a bowl and mix. Ready to eat.

    If you do not have a food processor or blender, use a plastic storage bag and rolling pin to crumble the cookies and almonds. 

    Do not over blend or process, to prevent a very fine or flour like mixture. You want to see some crumble chunks.

    How to store toasted almond crunch topping?

    Store your toasted almond crumbles in an airtight container. Since this is a shelf stable recipe it can be stored in a cool dry pantry, in the refrigerator or freezer.

    How long does toasted almond crumble topping last?

    No bake crunch topping can last up to a month in a cool dry pantry, make sure it is in an airtight container. If you prefer to store it in the refrigerator, for up to two months or in the freezer for up to six months. 

    FAQ & Tips

    1. Why use a creme filled cookie for toasted almond crumbles? 

    The creme filling in the cookie ingredient helps the crumble and almonds clump together. 

    2. How to gift homemade toasted almond crumble?

    Homemade toasted almond crunch can really be an amazing edible food gift. Place a cup portion in an 8oz canning mason jar with the metal lid sealed well. Decorate the jar with colorful paper, fabric, ribbon, stickers, twine, and a tag. You can get so creative with this food gift and don’t forget to bring a pint of vanilla ice cream or vanilla cupcakes.

      Added a few drops of almond extract to vanilla ice cream and topped it with this recipe. 10/10 tastes exactly like the good humor toasted almond bar. We tried it on plain vanilla and it was really good and I was like it’s soooo close but something is missing. The almond extract in the ice cream was the missing link. Drawback, I can’t stop eating it!
