Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons (42 g) honey
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
- 1 cup (112 g) roasted cashews, whole or halves
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper (cashews will stick to an unlined baking sheet). Set aside.
- In a bowl, combine honey, salt, and cayenne pepper. Add toasted sesame seeds and cashews, stirring until evenly coated.

Notes
- Make sure to use parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper according to taste preference.
