Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups raw macadamia nuts
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary (optional, finely chopped)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the raw macadamia nuts, olive oil, sea salt, garlic powder, smoked paprika, ground black pepper, and chopped rosemary (if using). Toss well to ensure the nuts are evenly coated in the seasoning mixture.
Spread the seasoned macadamia nuts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the macadamia nuts for 10-12 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even toasting. Keep an eye on them, as macadamia nuts can burn quickly.
Remove the nuts from the oven when they are lightly golden and fragrant. Allow them to cool completely on the baking sheet as they will continue to crisp up while cooling.
Transfer the savory macadamia nuts to an airtight container for storage. They can be enjoyed immediately or stored at room temperature for up to a week.
