Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon paprika, smoked
  • ¼ to ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper adjust to taste
  • 1 teaspoon sugar (optional)
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 ½ cups raw cashews

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 325°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, mix the oil with garlic powder, paprika, cayenne, and salt. If you want, add a little sugar as well. This won't make them overly sweet it just perks up the flavor.
  • Add the cashews and toss to coat evenly.
  • Spread them out in a single layer on the baking sheet.
  • Roast for 15–20 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until lightly golden and fragrant.
  • Let cool completely before storing in an airtight container.
  • Storage Tip: These garlic spiced cashews keep well at room temperature for up to a week and even longer in the fridge or freezer.

Notes

If you use roasted cashews you can reduce the roasting time a bit.
