Paleo Friendly Spicy Roasted Cashews
- Yield:12 servings
- Time:20 mins show details
After getting the cashews nice and coated with the other ingredients, you pop them into the oven for a few minutes. This does a few things. First of all, it binds the different ingredients to the nuts so you don’t end up with a bowl of plain nuts with spices at the bottom of the dish. Of course, the honey helps everything stick together too! But roasting the nuts for a bit brings out heightened flavors in all the ingredients. The sugars in the honey caramelize a bit, the smoky flavor enhances and warms up, and the nuts themselves develop extra nutty flavor.
