Ingredients
- 1 tbsp dark brown sugar
- 1 tbsp finely shredded orange zest
- 1½ tsp ground cumin
- 1½ tsp sea salt flakes, lightly crushed
- ½ tsp freshy ground black pepper
- 300g unsalted raw cashews
- ½ tsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp finely chopped rosemary
Cooling time 30 minutes
Instructions
Preheat oven to 150°C (130°C fan-forced).
Line an oven tray with non-stick baking paper.
Combine the sugar, orange rind, salt, cumin, salt and pepper in a medium bowl and toss to combine evenly. Rinse the cashews in a colander under running water and shake off any excess water. Add to the sugar mixture and toss to combine evenly.
Heat the olive oil and rosemary in a small saucepan over low heat for 1 minute or until aromatic. Pour over the nut mixture and toss to combine evenly. Spread on the lined tray in a single layer.
Bake in preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, tossing the nuts every 10 minutes, until aromatic and the nuts are a deep golden. Cool the nuts on the tray (this will take about 30 minutes).
Note
• These nuts will keep in an airtight jar or container in a cool dark spot for up to 3 weeks.
