Candied Pecans - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 lb pecan halves
1 cup sugar
2 egg whites
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
Preparation
-
Preheat oven to 250.
Combine egg whites and vanilla in large bowl and whisk until frothy (i used my kitchenaid w/ whisk attachment).
In a separate bowl combine Sugar, Salt and Cinnamon.
Add Pecans to egg white mixture, mix well until coated.
Slowly pour Sugar mixture into pecans while mixing.
Pour onto a greased cookie sheet (or use parchment or silpats) and spread the pecans into a single layer.
Put into oven for 15 minutes then stir the pecans, repeat every 15 minutes for a total of 1 hour. They will be semi soft when warm (still delicious) and will harden when cooled.
