I used to not like any type of nut at all. While I still don’t like ANY type of nut in ANY cookie (bars, sometimes; cookies—never), I have certainly expanded my horizons to include some delicious recipes that include nuts. Pecans are the main ingredient here—the highlight. And I love them. Although, I would say it might be hard to not like anything that is smothered in cinnamon and sugar!
These package up so nicely. Delicious and festive, how can you go wrong?
CINNAMON SUGAR PECANS
1 lb. pecan halves
1 egg white
1 Tablespoon water
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
2. Mix sugar, salt, and cinnamon in a small bowl; set aside.
3. In another bowl, beat egg white and water with electric mixer until frothy, but not stiff. Add pecans and mix to coat.
4. Add sugar, salt, cinnamon mixture to pecans. Mix.
5. Spread on large cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes.
6. Package to give away, or serve in a decorative bowl.
