- 2 ½ cups (342.5 g) raw cashews, unsalted
- ¼ cup (50 g) light brown sugar, packed
- ¼ cup (85 g) honey
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Preheat oven to 350°F.* Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, toss cashews with brown sugar, honey, salt, and melted butter until well coated.
Spread the coated cashews in a single layer onto the lined baking sheet.
Bake for 15 minutes, stirring once at the halfway point (around 7 or 8 minutes).
Remove from the oven and stir again, spreading the nuts out. Let cool for 5 minutes, then stir once more.
Let cool completely before serving. If they’re not crunchy enough, return to the oven for an additional 3 to 5 minutes, watching carefully so they don’t burn.
*Air Fryer Instructions
- Line the basket of your air fryer with parchment paper.
- Spread the coated cashews into the lined basket. (Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to work in batches.)
- Air fry at 350°F for about 6 minutes, stirring the nuts halfway through.
- Pour the nuts onto a sheet of parchment paper to cool.
