Candied Cinnamon Pecans (Copycat Outback Steakhouse) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/3 cup pecans, sliced-lengthwise
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons butter, melted

Preparation

Slice each pecan half into three lengthwise pieces.
Mix together the cinnamon and brown sugar.
Toss pecans with melted butter, then with the cinnamon/sugar mixture, tossing well to ensure a thorough coating.
Put the nuts on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 5 to 8 minutes, until sugar is caramelized.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven, slide the parchment together with the nuts off the sheet to cool, and set aside.
