Cashews are one of my favorite nuts to snack on. I just love the natural buttery flavor. So I decided to sweeten them up a bit by roasting them in honey and ground cinnamon. These cashews were delicious and made a light salty-sweet snack. ~Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteCarrie,
ReplyDeleteI have gone crazy buying salted nuts lately (I think it's a childhood memory of having a nut bowl during the holidays?) but this--I think my next nut purchase needs to be unsalted, because this recipe sounds amazing.
Thanks!
