Calories: 896kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup raw cashews*
- 1 tbsp ghee
- 2 tsp coconut sugar
- 1 tsp raw honey
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425ºF. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
- Add the ghee, coconut sugar, and honey to a small microwave-safe bowl. Heat it in the microwave until just melted.
- Add the spices, and stir to combine.
- Add the cashews to the glaze mixture, mixing until coated.
- Pour the cashews out onto the lined baking sheet in a single layer.
- Transfer to the oven, and roast for about 7 minutes or until the cashews begin to brown and the glaze bubbles.
- Remove from the oven, and use a spoon to toss the cashews with the melted glaze. Allow the cashews to cool, then serve!
Notes
- I like using cashew pieces, and that's what's pictured in this post. Feel free to use whole cashews if you like! Raw is best since they will be roasting in the oven.
- If you don't have coconut sugar, you can replace it with all honey. I just like the flavor that the coconut sugar adds.
- Try adding shredded coconut if you have it! Adds great texture! You could also do this with other nuts like peanuts or pecans.
