Instructions

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 160 degrees Celsius (320 Fahrenheit) if your model requires preheating.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the raw cashew nuts, fresh lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, ground black pepper, and a pinch of fine sea salt.
  3. Mix the cashews well to coat them evenly with the lemon juice, olive oil, pepper, and salt.
  4. Place the coated cashews in the air fryer basket in a single layer to ensure even cooking.
  5. Cook the cashews in the air fryer at 160 degrees Celsius for 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to prevent burning and promote even roasting.
  6. After 10 minutes, check the cashews for crispiness and golden color; if needed, cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, watching closely to avoid burning.
  7. Remove the cashews from the air fryer and let them cool completely on a plate or tray; they will become crispier as they cool.

Tips

  • Use raw cashews for best results; avoid pre-roasted nuts.
  • Shake the air fryer basket halfway through cooking to ensure even roasting.
