Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Cashews
• 1 tbsp Coconut oil
• 2 tsp Garam masala
• 1/2 tsp Salt

Steps

1. Heat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Melt the coconut oil and toss with the cashews in a bowl until every nut glistens.
3. Sprinkle with the garam masala and salt, then toss again for an even coating.
4. Spread in a single layer on the baking sheet. Crowded nuts steam instead of roasting.
5. Roast 10 to 12 minutes, stirring once halfway, until a shade darker and fragrant throughout the kitchen.
6. Taste one carefully, it{Q}s hot. It should be crisp all the way through, not chewy in the center.
7. Beginner tip: nuts keep cooking from residual heat, so pull them just before they look fully done. Cool completely on the pan, they crisp as they cool, then store airtight up to 2 weeks.
