Ingredients

  • 2 2.1- ounce 60g packages organic ramen noodles*
  • ½ cup almonds
  • ¼ cup sesame seeds
  • ¼ cup sunflower seeds optional
  • I tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • ½ teaspoon kosher or fine sea salt

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350˚F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper for easy clean up.
  • With ramen noodle package unopened, crush noodles with your fingers. Open package and remove seasoning packet. Discard or save seasoning for another use.
  • Combine ramen noodles, almonds and seeds on prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil and honey. Sprinkle with salt and stir.
  • Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown, stirring every 5 minutes (this will prevent topping from browning too much at the edges). Remove from oven and allow to cool completely. Store in ziplock bags or glass jars.**

Notes

* Organic ramen noodles can be found at Whole Foods, Trader Joe's and health food markets.
**This topping freezes well in ziplock bags or storage containers. I like to keep a small jar in my pantry and freeze the rest to keep it fresh.
