Ryan and I always have a variety of nuts on hand and I love experimenting with different flavor combinations when roasting nuts on my own. (These sweet and spicy roasted almonds are our go-to!) Over the weekend I whipped up yet another batch of roasted nuts and turned to one of my favorite flavor duos: Cinnamon and coconut!
We ended up loving these roasted cashews so much that I made another batch yesterday afternoon! Like most recipes I share on this blog, this recipe is an easy one that comes together in a flash. If you’re a coconut lover, please add this one to your “must make” list!
I opted out of adding any sugar to the nuts, but you can sweeten them up a bit by adding a splash of maple syrup to the mix before roasting, if desired.

Description
Roasted nuts are a staple in our house. Over the weekend I whipped up yet another batch of roasted nuts and turned to one of my favorite flavor duos: Cinnamon and coconut!
Ingredients
- 1 cup raw cashews
- 2 teaspoons coconut oil (melted)
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened shredded coconut
- Splash maple syrup (if desired)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
- Toss cashews, coconut oil and cinnamon together in a small bowl. Spread out on a cookie sheet sprayed with cooking spray and roast for 10 – 12 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Remove from the oven, toss with unsweetened shredded coconut, cool and enjoy!
These nuts taste great on their own as a quick and easy grab-and-go snack and also make a great addition to a bowl of oatmeal or a creamy cup of Greek yogurt. If you decide to give them a try, I hope you love them!

This recipe sounds amazing – I love coconut!! However, cashews and I are not friends, do you think it would work with any other nuts like almonds or peanuts??
Definitely!!! I want to make it with pecans next!
I love roasted nuts as an easy snack! I will definitely try this!

Mmm these look yummy!
I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I’ve actually never roasted nuts! These look like a fantastic easy treat to make though – I’ll have to swing to them when the parents come to town next weekend. 🙂
As if I couldn’t stop eating cashews enough…these sound amazing!!
Yum! This sounds amazing! I love that all your recipes are so easy!
Costco sells coconut covered cashews in a big tub…just sampled them yesterday and they are AMAZING! Just a cheat tip if you ever don’t feel like making them!
I clicked on this recipe the second I read the title. YUM! Just discovering how great nuts are as a snack. I will totally try this. Thanks for posting.
Yum! I love cashew and coconut together. Adding cinnamon sounds fantastic!
I love your recipes! Thanks for this – I never thought of pairing coconut with nuts! Cool idea.
What a great idea. I usually steer away from roasted nuts at the store due to the price, but bet these would be budget friendly.
Perfect for an afternoon snack! Beautiful photography too!
CINNAMON COCONUT ROASTED CASHEWS is a taste of heaven. I can eat this everyday.
This is a perfect snack! Thanks for sharing!
