Yield

First, preheat the oven to 375ºF and spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray or line with parchment paper. Set aside.
Next, place raw cashews on the baking sheet and drizzle on maple syrup.
Toss cashews in the maple syrup and make sure everything is fully coated. Then sprinkle on sesame seeds and gently toss again. Season with salt.
Roast at 375ºF for around 10 minutes, stopping to toss at 3, 6, and 9 minutes.
Once your cashews are golden brown, remove them from the oven and let them sit for at least 10 minutes. During this time they will become crunchy.
Let cashews cool completely and then store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

As your cashews rest after baking they will harden. If they feel a little spongy, don't worry!
Storage: let the nuts cool completely and then store them in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
