Do you need new snack recipe ideas? Per the request of followers & friends, I’m still on a mission to get you more snack recipes! These roasted cinnamon vanilla cashews are easy, but take a long time in the oven (and are totally worth it). I’m tempted to say a dehydrator might work, but I haven’t tested it yet, so I can’t be sure! These require you to soak, dry, and then bake for a few hours at low temp to get crunchy. But who doesn’t love the sweet combination of cinnamon and vanilla? Do you love the smell of roasted nuts like I do? It makes me think of my days living in Boston and New York City with the street vendors. Delicious! Although a little bit time consuming, the end result is magical! Feel free to double, triple or even quadruple this roasted cinnamon vanilla cashew recipe - or use almonds!
- 1 cup raw cashews or almonds
- ½ cup pure vanilla extract
- ½ cup water
- 2 tablespoons cinnamon (or more, if you like)
- Place cashews in a bowl overnight to soak in ½ cup vanilla extract & ½ cup water
- *add cinnamon to water mixture if you like extra cinnamon!
- In the morning, spread nuts out on a paper towel to thoroughly dry (a few hours)
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees
- Place nuts on a silpat and spread out evenly
- *Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons (or more) of cinnamon
- Roast in oven for 3 hours
- Allow to cool before serving
A half cup of vanilla extract? Is that correct?
I know it sounds like a lot but yes! because you are soaking the cashews in it! 🙂
what are the nutrition facts on these ?
I’m not sure Briana because I’m not sure how you calculate the soaked in vanilla - sorry!
