Spicy Cashew Nuts


Just made these up right before Christmas and they were a hit!  I originally made them to have around for a snack while family was here.  Then I decided they would be great to place in mason jars, print some cute labels, & give as gifts.  I bought the smaller mason jars and they were perfect for gift giving and were so cute!  I will be adding these to the Pumpkin Bread gifts I make for my children's teachers every year.  The original recipe comes from Vegan in the Freezer.  I only did a small couple differences.


Ingredients
3 regular size cans cashews or 3 cups
2-3 tsp canola oil
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper powder
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp sea salt

Put the cashews in the crockpot.
Add the oil and stir.
Add the rest of the spices and mix thoroughly.
Cook on low 1 hour.
You can freeze these by putting them in a freezer bag or a freezer safe glass container but they will probably be gone very quickly.
They will keep in the refrigerator for 2 weeks and in the freezer for 2 months.

I love how the little jars turned out!
