Candied Pecans Recipe (How to Make Praline Pecans)
Candied pecans are easy to make and great for munching, gifting, and topping. We love them on everything from salad to ice cream. The cinnamon-sugar mixture caramelizes onto the nuts, giving them an irresistible and delicate crunch.
Prep: Preheat the oven to 250˚F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, stir together sugar, cinnamon and salt.
In a second lagging mixing bowl, whisk egg white, water, and vanilla until frothy.
Add pecans to egg white mixture and stir to coat.
Add cinnamon and sugar mixture to the coated pecans and mix to combine.
Spread nuts into a single layer on the parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 1 hour, stirring every 20 minutes. Let cool to room temperature and enjoy.
