    Why You'll Love Everything Bagel Cashews

    • Everything but the bagel cashews are a great snack.
    • They also make an excellent salad topper.
    • They are a perfect birthday gift or holiday gift to give to neighbors.

    Recipe Ingredients

    For the Everything Bagel Cashew Recipe, you'll need just a handful of ingredients.

    The ingredients for everything bagel cashews.

    Roasted Whole Cashews or Raw Cashews are the base of the recipe, providing a rich, buttery crunch that pairs well with the seasoning.

    Egg Whites help the seasoning stick.

    Honey is optional. It adds a touch of sweetness, balancing the savory flavors.

    Everything Bagel Seasoning Blend such as Trader Joe's Everything But the Bagel Seasoning or your local grocery store brand of everything bagel seasoning. You can also check out the substitutions below to make your own everything seasoning blend. 

    Substitutions

    • Create your own spice blend to replace pre-packaged everything bagel seasoning. You will need one tablespoon each of poppy seeds, white sesame seeds, black sesame seeds, dried minced garlic, dried minced onion, and 1 teaspoon of flaked sea salt. Store the extra seasoning in a mason jar or other air-tight container.
    • Mixed Nuts can replace cashews, but keep an eye on them to make sure they don't burn.

    How to Make Everything Bagel Cashews

    Here are some quick visual instructions. The full recipe with ingredient measurements is below!

    Preheat your oven to 300° Fahrenheit and line a sheet pan with parchment paper.

    Whisk the egg whites until frothy and add them to a large bowl.

    Add the cashews, honey, and your bagel sesame seasoning blend. Mix well until each cashew is evenly coated.

    Arrange the nut mixture on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer to ensure even roasting.

    Place the cashews in the oven and bake, stirring halfway through. Keep a close eye on them so they don't burn.

    Once baked, let the cashews cool to room temperature. Enjoy your everything cashews! They really do make the best snack!

    Tips for Making Everything Bagel Flavored Cashews

    • Watch the cashews closely. They can go from perfectly golden brown to overdone very quickly. 
    • Stirring halfway through helps them roast evenly.
    • If the cashews are salted or if your everything bagel seasoning contains salt, don't add any additional salt to the recipe.
    • The egg white is essential to make sure the seasoning sticks to the cashews.

    How to Store Everything Bagel Cashews

    • Storage: To keep your everything bagel seasoned cashews fresh, allow them to cool completely before transferring to an airtight container. Store them at room temperature for up to a week. 
    • Freezing: If you make a large batch, you can also keep them in the freezer, which helps maintain that just-roasted taste for longer.

    Flavor Variations for Everything But the Bagel Nuts

    While the classic bagel seasoning blend is the star of this recipe, here are a few flavor variations to try.

    • A Variety of Nuts: Replace the cashews with mixed nuts.
    • Cheesy: Incorporate some nutritional yeast to make a flavorful, savory snack.
    • Spicy twist: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a spicy kick.
    • Sweet & savory: Sprinkle a little sugar along with the bagel seasoning for a sweet-savory combination.
    • Add Cream Cheese: Serve the cashews alongside some whipped cream cheese for a delicious dip.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How do I get seasoning to stick to cashews?

    To get seasoning to stick to cashews, use a binding agent like egg whites. Whisking egg whites until frothy helps create a sticky coating that holds the seasoning in place while baking, ensuring an even, crispy layer. Always toss the cashews thoroughly in a large bowl before spreading them in a single layer on a prepared baking sheet for even roasting.

    How do you add flavor to unsalted cashews?

    Make everything bagel cashews with your unsalted cashews! Whisk up an egg white to help the seasoning stick to the cashews. Toss your cashews in the frothy egg white and then add the bagel seasoning to coat the cashews. Bake them in your oven for the best snack!
