German Roasted Nuts

Excellent!! I love seasoned nuts - almonds, cashews, walnuts, you name it! - and while I tend to prefer the more savory flavors, I like the occasional sweeter side too. Did exactly but pulled out around the 8-9 minute mark. I Pam’d my baking sheet well so no issues with it sticking to the sheet itself but these do get sticky so stir often. Great recipe and would make great gifts! Will keep that in mind as we go into the holiday season! Thanks for posting this!

3.13.17 Wow, are these good! I scaled this recipe down, and baked 8 minutes (not 10-15) . Would suggest not letting them get too brown, mine would have been burned at 15 minutes, so watch your time. I read the reviews, and a number of people said they had difficulty getting them off the foil. I’d suggest not baking these cashews to the point where the honey mixture has completely hardened. As soon as you take them out of the oven, immediately move them to a plate to dry for 20 minutes, and then sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture on them. At least this method worked for me, and I couldn’t have been happier with the way they turned out. Of course, I knew that I was going to luv these nuts, and I wasn’t let down. DELICIOUS and going on my Christmas “Food From The Kitchen” gift list this year.****UPDATE 12.5.18**** I recently bought a 2-1/2 lb jar of whole cashews on sale at Costco, specifically for a Holiday Food Gift From the Kitchen this year. Today I made this recipe again, and this time I baked for 13 minutes at 325ºF, that’s the time listed in the recipe. so I’m thinking the 10-15 minutes stated in the recipe is spot on. The last time I made this recipe, they were done in 8 minutes, and I’m now thinking maybe I accidentally had the oven set at 350ºF. Whatever, 8 minutes at 350ºF or 10-15 minutes at 325ºF, they’re still delicious.

I had to alter the recipe a bit. After letting the cashews cool for 15 mins I started coating them in the sugar. It wasn't nearly enough. I had to quadruple the dry sugar portion of the recipe. I had to put them in a bowl with a bunch of the sugar mixture and break the nuts apart by hand while tossing them by hand. Also for my own taste...I added a 1/4tsp of sugar to each batch of the dry sugar portion. They turned out great!

I quartered the recipe, and added only a pinch of cinnamon. It only took about 7-10 minutes in my convection oven, stirring a few times. I also added the finishing sugar while still warm, then I cooled the nuts. I added about 1/2 teaspoon salt at the end.

Made these for Recipe Group. I had some problems with the mixture, I ended up with caramel almost on the nuts and had to pry them off the foil. I don't know if it would benefit from tossing the nuts in the mix first and cooking till dry and then roasting or if stirring in the oven would help. They were tasty, but I probably won't make again this way.

Recipe Group Selection: 14, September 2013 ~ I'm a few weeks behind on making this recipe, but it got done. Thought these were good, but think we would have liked them better made with almonds. The honey flavor really comes through in this recipe. Make sure they are completely cool before adding the additional sugar/cinnamon mixture.
