You can make them right at home with just a few simple ingredients!
Ingredients:
2 cups unsalted cashews
3 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon olive oil or melted butter
½ teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
¼ teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
Instructions:
Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat for easy cleanup.
Prepare Cashews: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the unsalted cashews. If you prefer a slightly softer texture, you can roast them for a few minutes first before adding the honey mixture.
Make the Honey Coating: In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the honey and olive oil (or melted butter). Stir continuously until the mixture is smooth and well combined. If desired, add the vanilla extract, cinnamon, and sea salt to enhance the flavor.
Coat the Cashews: Pour the warm honey mixture over the cashews and toss them until they’re evenly coated. Make sure each cashew is covered with a thin layer of the honey mixture.
Roast the Cashews: Spread the coated cashews in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast them in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even roasting. Keep an eye on them during the last few minutes to prevent burning, as honey can darken quickly.
Cool and Enjoy: Once golden brown and crispy, remove the cashews from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheet. They will crisp up further as they cool.
