Instructions

1

Prepare the oven and baking sheet

Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Using parchment paper makes cleanup easier and prevents sticking.

Stir the cashews halfway through roasting for even color.

Coat the cashews

Add the roasted cashews to the saucepan and toss them in the honey mixture until evenly coated.

Work quickly to ensure all cashews are coated before the glaze thickens.
