Healthy Snack: Herb Roasted Nuts

  • Yield: 5 Cups
  • Prep Time: 5 min
  • Cooking Time: 10 hr

Ingredients

  • 5 cups of nuts (I used cashews)
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1 Tbs. fresh rosemary, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp. fresh thyme, finely chopped
  • 1 Tbs. Maldon or sea salt
  • Fresh cracked pepper

Preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 375. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. In a bowl, mix the olive oil, chopped herbs, salt and pepper until combined. With the nuts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, pour the dressing on top and coat the nuts until evenly coated. You could also do this step in a bowl and pour the combined mixture on the prepared baking sheet.
  3. Bake the nuts for 5-10 minutes, checking regularly so they do not burn. Once roasted to a golden brown color, remove them from the oven and sprinkle with Maldon salt. Serve warm or once they have cooler. Enjoy!
