Preheat the oven to 325Β°F (165Β°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter and stir in the honey until combined and smooth.
Remove the saucepan from heat and whisk in the curry powder, smoked paprika, ground cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a spiced butter mixture.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cashews, almonds, pecans, and pistachios. Pour the spiced butter mixture over the nuts and toss thoroughly to coat evenly.
Spread the seasoned nuts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring theyβre not overlapping too much for even roasting.
Bake the nuts in the preheated oven for 18β20 minutes, stirring halfway through to prevent burning. The nuts should be golden brown and aromatic.
Remove the nuts from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 10β15 minutes. They will crisp up as they cool.
Transfer the cooled nuts to a serving bowl or an airtight container if storing. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro if desired before serving.
Store in a sealed container at room temperature for up to one week for optimal freshness.
