Candied Pecans

Just like it states in the original recipe blog where I found this recipe: these smell sooooo AMAZING when they are baking!  And they are quite delicious, too, of course.  They aren't exactly the same as what you would get at one of those places at a fair or whatnot--think they are more on the sweet side than those.  Either way, mmmmm!

Ingredients:

1/2 c. sugar
1/2 c. brown sugar, packed
1 T. cinnamon
1 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper
12 oz. pecan halves (unsalted)
1 egg white

Instructions:

1. Heat oven to 300°F.  Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Combine first five ingredients in a medium bowl.

3. Combine pecan halves and egg white in a large bowl, stirring until all pecans are well-coated.

4. Pour sugar mixture over pecan mixture and mix until well combined/coated.

5. Spread pecans onto parchment in single layer.  Bake for 20 minutes, then stir and bake for additional 20 minutes.


6. Remove from oven and let pecans cool on sheet on a rack until room temperature.  Enjoy!
