An almond-stuffed olive is a pitted green olive filled with a whole or broken almond. The olive brings a salty, pleasantly sharp bite, while the almond adds a mild, nutty flavour and a firm centre. It is commonly sold ready to serve as an appetiser or part of a deli-style selection.
Serve these olives with drinks, alongside bread and cheese, or scattered through a salad; they also work well on a mezze board. Both ingredients contribute fat, so they are rich-tasting despite their small size. A few add plenty of savoury character to a plate, especially when paired with fresh vegetables.

An almond-stuffed olive is a pitted olive filled with an almond, most often a green olive. It combines the olive’s briny, tangy taste with the almond’s firm, mildly sweet crunch, making it a popular appetizer and snack.
Serve almond-stuffed olives cold as part of an antipasto or snack platter, alongside bread, cheese, or other small bites. Drain them before serving if you want less brine on the plate; they can also garnish a martini.
Almond-stuffed olives are made by removing the olive pits and placing an almond in the opening. For a homemade version, use pitted olives and whole almonds, inserting the nuts gently so the olives keep their shape.
Almond-stuffed olives taste salty and tangy from the brined olive, with a firm, nutty crunch in the center. The contrast is more noticeable than with soft fillings such as pimento, though the exact flavor varies with the olive and brine.
Almond-stuffed olives have a crisp, nutty center, while pimento-stuffed olives are filled with soft, sweet pepper. The almond version has a more pronounced crunch and a richer nut flavor against the olive’s briny taste.
You can add almond-stuffed olives whole to green salads, pasta salads, grain bowls, or antipasto platters. Since the almond makes them difficult to slice neatly, serve them whole or remove the filling before chopping them.
Keep opened almond-stuffed olives refrigerated in a covered container, ideally submerged in their brine. Use a clean utensil to take them out, and follow the package’s storage directions for how long they keep.
Almond-stuffed olives provide unsaturated fats from the olives and almonds, but brined olives can also be high in sodium. They can fit into a balanced eating pattern; keep the salty taste in mind if you are watching your sodium intake.
Yes, you can cook with almond-stuffed olives, but they are usually best added near the end of cooking. Extended heat softens the olive and almond, so use them in warm pasta or baked dishes when you want their briny flavor rather than a crisp center.
No, almond-stuffed olives do not usually need rinsing before you eat them. If the brine tastes too salty, drain and briefly rinse the olives, but avoid soaking them because that can wash away their flavor.
