Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups raw cashews unsalted
  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar

Instructions
 

  • Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Pour the raw cashews into a large bowl and pour the maple syrup over them. Use a spoon or spatula to coat all the cashews in the maple syrup.
  • Sprinkle the ground cinnamon, brown sugar, and ¼ teaspoon salt over the cashews. Toss to combine using a spoon.
  • Pour the cashews on the prepared baking sheet with parchment paper and distribute them evenly. Pour any extra maple syrup mixture on the bottom of the bowl over the cashews.
  • Bake in the oven for five minutes. Take the baking sheet out and give the pan a shake to mix the cashews. Bake for five more minutes.
  • Take the cashews out and let the cashews cool on the baking sheet. You will end up with carmelized cashew nut clusters. The cashews will be golden brown. You can top the cashews with an extra pinch of salt.

Notes

the cashews and maple syrup mixture might look bubbly in the oven. Don't worry, the bubbles will go away. As long as you shake the pan or stir the cashews halfway through, the cashews will be fine.
