This delicious recipe for air fryer sweet and salty roasted cashew nuts is super easy to make. This snack is quicker to make in the air fryer and has a perfect maple and salty flavor.
I love using my air fryer to roast nuts! It allows me to pick what ingredients go on them (no preservatives or gluten). The best part might be that it only takes six minutes to roast them.
The key to this recipe for air fryer sweet and salty roasted cashew nuts is that you mix them in a bowl to get them completely coated in the topping. Then after they are don't roasting you pour them onto a parchment lined baking sheet.
Letting them cool on a baking sheet allows you to spread them out so you don't get one big clump of roasted cashews stuck together. This is why I suggest spreading them on a baking sheet rather than leaving them in the basket of your air fryer to cool.
Should cashews be roasted?
I love roasting cashews! Roasting them brings out their natural sweet flavor and adds some crunch. Taking the time to roast them also allows me to coat them with a flavoring. Whether it's simply sea salt or this recipe for sweet and savory nuts.
How long do roasted cashews last?
After the nuts have completely cooled you can place them in an air tight container. They can last for up to six months, but we go through them much quicker than that. You can also store them in the refrigerator for a longer shelf life.
