roasted beans

Dark aromatic coffee seeds

Roasted beans are beans that have been cooked by dry heat, most commonly coffee beans.

Raw coffee beans are green and grassy; roasting transforms them into the dark, aromatic beans ground for brewing.

The term also applies to cacao beans processed for chocolate, or legumes like chickpeas roasted as snacks.
