Ingredients
- 2 cups Pecans
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 pinch Salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the honey, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir until the mixture is smooth and just warmed through, about 1-2 minutes.
Step 3
Add the pecans to the saucepan and stir until they are evenly coated with the honey mixture.
Step 4
Spread the coated pecans out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, stirring the pecans halfway through cooking to ensure even roasting.
Step 6
Remove the pecans from the oven and immediately sprinkle them with the granulated sugar while they are still warm. Toss gently to coat.
Step 7
Allow the pecans to cool completely on the baking sheet. They will harden as they cool, creating a crunchy texture.
Step 8
Transfer the cooled pecans to an airtight container for storage, or enjoy them immediately as a snack.
