Equipment

Ingredients
 

  • 3 cups Pecan halves
  • ½ cup Sugar
  • ¼ cup Water
  • 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
  • ⅛ teaspoon Salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350℉.
  • Spread pecan halves on an un-greased cookie sheet. Bake at 350℉ for 10 minutes, stirring after 5 minutes.
  • Combine sugar, water, cinnamon and salt in a saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat until sugar dissolves, stirring often. Add pecans and cook for 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
  • Spread pecans on an un-greased cookie sheet. Bake at 300℉ for 15 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes. Cool completely.
  • Store in an air-tight container.

Christina's Notes

  • Let Cool: Let the nuts cool completely before storing. If they're still warm, trapping the moisture/warmth can make the roasted nuts soft or even soggy.
  • Mix Well: Stir halfway through roasting for even coating.
  • Raw Nuts: Use raw pecans for best flavor and roasting control.
