Candied Pecans

Tuesday, November 20, 2012 6:30

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

For as long as I can remember I’ve been making Candied Pecans. I make them to have around the house when company is coming, add them to salads, as toppings for desserts or just to eat them plain – they’re so good! I especially love giving the Candied Pecans as a holiday gift, packaged in cellophane bags tied with colorful ribbons.

If you’ve never made Candied Pecans this simple recipe takes no time at all. Once made look out – your family will gobble them up in minutes, literally!

Here’s the recipe…..make a batch for Thanksgiving, everyone will be thrilled you did.

Candied Pecans

1 cup sugar

1/2 cup water

1 tsp ground cinnamon

Dash of ground cloves

2 cups pecan halves

1 tsp pure vanilla extract

Combine first 4 ingredients in a medium saucepan.

Cook over medium heat until sugar dissolves, stirring constantly (about 8-10 minutes).

Add pecans and vanilla, cook until all syrup is absorbed and pecans are coated, stirring constantly (about 12 minutes – will look powdery).

Spread pecan mixture on a baking sheet lined with parchment. (Pecans will have a sugar coating)

Cool completely then store in airtight container or serve.

Yields approx. 3 1/2 cups

Enjoy!!!
