Cinnamon-Sugar Pecans

I made these the night before Thanksgiving and they're super easy!  They're a great blend of salty + sweet.  They also keep well, so they can be made ahead of time or given as gifts. Recipe from AllRecipes.com.



Ingredients
  • 1 egg white
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1 pound pecan halves
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 250 degrees F. 
  2. In a mixing bowl, whip together the egg white and water until frothy.

  3. In a separate bowl, mix together sugar, salt, and cinnamon.
  4. Add pecans to egg whites, stir to coat evenly.
  5. Remove pecans and toss them in the sugar mixture until coated.

  6. Spread the nuts out on the greased baking sheet.

  7. Bake for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes.
