Sliced almonds

Planters Sliced Almonds are almonds carefully cut into thin slices, ideal for use as an ingredient or topping in a wide variety of recipes. Their crunchy texture and mild flavor make them a perfect complement for salads, desserts, cereals, baked goods, and savory dishes.

Almonds primarily come from temperate regions such as California (United States), Spain, and the Mediterranean, although their cultivation has spread to various parts of the world. The Planters brand is globally recognized for offering high-quality nuts, ensuring that their sliced almonds maintain freshness, flavor, and optimal properties.

This ingredient provides important nutritional benefits, as almonds are an excellent source of healthy fats (rich in monounsaturated fatty acids), plant-based proteins, dietary fiber, vitamin E, and essential minerals such as magnesium and calcium. Incorporating them into cooking contributes to a balanced and flavorful diet.

In different Latin American countries, sliced almonds may also be known as "almendras laminadas" or "almendras fileteadas", terms that refer to their shape and presentation in thin slices, facilitating their use in recipes.
