Sugared Pecans

by Carroll Pellegrinelli
You've had these from a store, but they are so much better homemade.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 egg white
  • 1-1/2 teaspoon water
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 pound pecan halves

PREPARATION:

Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. With fork, beat egg white and water. Combine salt, cinnamon and sugar in a resealable plastic bag. Place pecans in egg mixture. Remove with slotted spoon to drain-off extra moisture. Place in bag and shake. Bake for 30 to 45 minutes, in a foil-lined pan, stirring every 15 minutes.

Freezes beautifully in an airtight container and will keep for two months.
