The slivered cut gives you more surface area than whole almonds, so they toast faster and integrate better into whatever you are making. Every one-ounce serving delivers 160 calories and 6 grams of protein, making these a good source of protein, vitamin E, heart-healthy fats, dietary fiber, calcium, iron, antioxidants, and magnesium. 11 verified reviews. 5.0 stars. Four sizes from 1 lb to 5 lb. Free shipping on orders over $25. Browse the complete almonds collection for whole, sliced, blanched, and in-shell formats, and the full nuts collection for every variety available from Nut Cravings.

Skin On vs. Blanched: Why It Matters

Most grocery slivered almonds are blanched, meaning the brown skin has been removed before slicing. Blanched looks cleaner and cooks up paler, which bakeries prefer for visual reasons.

Skin-on keeps the flavor compounds concentrated in the outer layer, gives a toastier, nuttier result at lower temperatures in less time, and holds the cut shape better during long bakes. For everything except recipes that specifically require white slivers for visual presentation, skin-on is the better choice.

Verified buyers confirm the result. "Great flavor and an important ingredient in making my Grandma's signature cookies." And: "Very nice quality and great crunch for breakfast parfaits."

How to Use Slivered Almonds

Green Bean Almondine

Toast 1/4 cup of slivered almonds in butter until golden, toss with blanched green beans, and finish with lemon zest. A five-minute classic side dish.

Salads

Scatter raw slivers over shredded cabbage, carrots, and chicken with a sesame-ginger dressing, or over a spinach salad. No toasting needed, the crunch works cold.

Granola and Trail Mix

Add directly to your oat mixture before baking. Slivers distribute through granola far more evenly than whole almonds so every scoop gets almond in it. Use 325°F and check at the 20-minute mark since slivered almonds toast faster than whole almonds in granola. Pair with our mixed nuts and bar mix collection for larger snack builds.

Baking and Pastry

Essential for almond croissant toppings, streusel, crumbles, and financiers. A verified buyer calls them "an important ingredient in making my Grandma's signature cookies." For recipes calling for ultra-thin white almond layers, our sliced almonds are the closer fit.

Fish and Pan Sauces

Trout amandine, sole meuniere, or any pan-fried white fish finished with brown butter and toasted slivered almonds. Toast in a skillet over medium heat for 60 to 90 seconds, stirring constantly, and remove to a plate the moment they turn golden.

Choosing the Right Size

1 lb: $0.94 per ounce
2 lb: $0.62 per ounce
3 lb: $0.60 per ounce
5 lb: $0.51 per ounce; divide and freeze half on arrival

Storage

Seal the resealable stand-up bag firmly after every use and store away from heat and light.

Room temperature, cool dark location: 6 to 9 months of peak freshness
Refrigerated: up to 2 years
Frozen: 2 or more years with no quality loss

Slivered almonds have more surface area than whole almonds and oxidize slightly faster in storage. For the 2 lb, 3 lb, and 5 lb sizes, divide on arrival and freeze the rest. Frozen slivered almonds thaw at room temperature in minutes with no texture loss.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between slivered, sliced, and whole almonds?

Three distinct cut formats for three distinct applications. Whole raw almonds (shelled, skin-on): for snacking, almond milk, almond butter, and any recipe that says "almonds" without specifying a cut. Slivered almonds (this product): thin matchstick strips, the format for topping, finishing, and baking integration applications -- green bean almondine, Asian chicken salad, almond croissants, granola, trout amandine, parfaits, streusel, yogurt bowls. Sliced almonds: paper-thin cross sections, the format for delicate pastry work, tuile cookies, financiers, and applications where an ultra-thin almond layer is the goal.

Why are these skin-on and not blanched like most store slivered almonds?

Nutritional and culinary reasons. The thin brown skin (pellicle) on an almond contains the polyphenol antioxidants catechins, epicatechins, kaempferol, isorhamnetin -- that blanching removes entirely. Skin-on slivers carry more flavor during toasting because the Maillard reaction engages the pellicle compounds alongside the kernel oils, producing a toastier, nuttier result at lower temperatures in less time. Skin-on slivers hold their shape better during long bakes without going soggy. The color difference in finished dishes is subtle.

Most grocery slivered almonds are blanched because bakeries prefer the white appearance for visual consistency in professional presentations. For home cooking and baking where the flavor and nutrition matter more than the precise color, skin-on is the nutritionally complete and better-tasting choice. If a recipe specifically requires blanched white slivers for appearance, you can drop skin-on slivers in boiling water for 60 seconds and slip the skins off it works on slivers just as it does on whole almonds.

How do I toast slivered almonds without burning them?

Two reliable methods. Dry pan on the stovetop: heat a skillet over medium heat (no oil needed), add slivered almonds in a single layer, and stir or toss constantly for 60 to 90 seconds until golden and fragrant. Remove immediately to a plate they continue cooking for a few seconds after removal from heat, so pull them when they are slightly lighter than you want. Oven method: spread in a single layer on a baking sheet, toast at 325 degrees Fahrenheit for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring once at the halfway point. Check at 7 minutes slivered almonds toast faster than whole or sliced because of the higher surface-area-to-mass ratio. The stovetop method is faster and gives you more control.

Are slivered almonds good for granola?

Yes and three of eleven verified buyers specifically mention granola as their primary use. Slivered almonds distribute through the oat mixture far more evenly than whole or roughly chopped almonds, so every scoop of finished granola gets almond in it. Add them directly to the untoasted oat mixture before baking. Use 325 degrees Fahrenheit rather than higher temperatures, and check at the 20-minute mark slivered almonds toast faster than whole almonds in granola and can over-brown if left too long. They come out with a crispy, satisfying crunch that whole almonds in granola can rarely match because the thin slivers bake through completely rather than leaving a raw center.

Are slivered almonds keto-friendly and good for diabetics?

Yes on both counts. At 2.5 grams of net carbohydrates per ounce and a glycemic index of essentially zero, raw slivered almonds have no meaningful impact on blood glucose and are fully compatible with strict ketogenic diets. A 2021 study of 219 young adults found those who ate 56 grams of almonds daily had significant reductions in hemoglobin A1c (the three-month blood sugar average used to monitor diabetes) compared with a control group. Incorporating slivered almonds into salads, granola, and cooked dishes also moderates the overall glycemic impact of those dishes by slowing glucose absorption from carbohydrate-heavy ingredients a useful property for diabetic buyers who want to manage blood sugar across meals rather than just snacks.

Are these Kosher certified?

Yes. Kosher Certified by the Beth Din Minchas Chinuch Tartikov (BDMC / TBD). The certification covers the complete product as packed and delivered. For restaurant, bakery, and food service buyers requiring Kosher certification documentation, documentation is available on request at 877-471-4870 or through the contact form.

Are these almonds safe for someone with a tree nut allergy?

No. Almonds are classified as tree nuts by the FDA and are one of the major food allergens. They will trigger reactions in people with almond or tree nut allergies. Our facility processes multiple tree nut varieties and peanuts. Not appropriate for anyone with a tree nut allergy.

How should I store slivered almonds to keep them fresh?

Slivered almonds have more surface area than whole almonds, which means they oxidize slightly faster in storage. Reseal the bag firmly after every use and store away from heat and direct light.

Pantry (sealed bag, cool dark location): 6 to 9 months
Refrigerator (sealed bag or airtight container): up to 2 years
Freezer (airtight container): 2 or more years with no quality loss

For the 2 lb size: divide on arrival. Bring a portion to the pantry for the current baking or cooking batch and freeze the rest immediately. Frozen slivered almonds thaw quickly and retain full texture and flavor. Fresh slivered almonds smell mildly sweet and clean. Rancid slivers smell sharp, paint-like, or slightly bitter.
