Ingredients
- 1 cup almonds
- 1 cup cashews
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon sriracha (adjust to your spice preference)
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional, for a smoky flavor)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven:
- Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix the Sauce:
- In a small bowl, whisk together honey, sriracha, soy sauce, and smoked paprika (if using) until smooth.
- Coat the Nuts:
- Place almonds and cashews in a large mixing bowl. Pour the sauce over them and toss until they’re evenly coated.
- Spread on Baking Sheet:
- Spread the nuts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Roast the Nuts:
- Roast in the oven for 12-15 minutes, stirring halfway through to prevent sticking and ensure even roasting. Keep an eye on them to avoid burning, as the honey can caramelize quickly.
- Add Sesame Seeds:
- Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle with sesame seeds while the nuts are still hot.
- Cool and Store:
- Allow the nuts to cool completely on the baking sheet. They will become crisp as they cool. Transfer to an airtight container for storage.
