AIR FRYER ROASTED CASHEWS

🥜 Air Fryer Roasted Cashews Recipe

✅ Ingredients:

  • 1 cup raw cashews

  • 1 tbsp olive oil (or melted coconut oil or ghee)

  • ½ tsp salt (adjust to taste)

  • ¼ tsp garlic powder (optional for flavor)

  • ¼ tsp paprika or chili powder (optional for a spicy kick)

  • ½ tsp sugar or honey (optional for sweet-spicy variation)


🔧 Equipment:

  • Air fryer

  • Mixing bowl

  • Spoon or spatula


👩‍🍳 Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Air Fryer

    • Set to 350°F (175°C) and let it preheat for about 3 minutes.

  2. Season the Cashews

    • In a bowl, toss raw cashews with olive oil, salt, and any optional spices (like garlic powder or paprika).

    • Mix well to coat evenly.

  3. Air Fry the Cashews

    • Spread the cashews in a single layer in the air fryer basket.

    • Air fry at 350°F (175°C) for 6–8 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.

  4. Check for Doneness

    • Cashews should turn light golden brown and smell toasty. Don’t overcook—they can burn quickly!

  5. Cool and Store

    • Let them cool completely before eating or storing.

    • Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.


🔄 Flavor Variations:

  • Sweet: Add a little maple syrup, cinnamon, and vanilla extract before roasting.

  • Spicy: Add cayenne pepper and a dash of lime juice.

  • Savory Herb: Add rosemary, thyme, and parmesan powder.
