These things are SUPER YUMMY, and will most definitely be in my list of homemade gifts this year, alongside homemade vanilla extract, and homemade cinnamon rolls.
Here's what you need:
1 lb pecans (pieces or whole, you choose)
1 cup sugar
1 egg white
1 tsp water
1 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
Preheat your oven to 225 degrees.
Mix your sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
Take your pecans, and put them in a bag. Simple enough, right?
Then, take your egg white, and add the water to it. Dump it into the bag with the pecans, and shake it up. (or, you could brush on the egg whites...but, I'm a rebel)
Take your bag of egg whited pecans, and dump them into the bowl with the sugar...and stir it all up until they're nice and happy and singing the glories of being covered in sugar and cinnamon.
Now you're going to dump that bag of singing pecans onto a baking sheet, smooth them out so there's no piles of singing pecans, and put it in the oven.
Bake them for 45 minutes at 225, then ramp up the heat to 275 and cook them 15 minutes more.
Seriously, this is so simple, it's almost comical. And the results seem so gourmet and delicious.
Once you're done pulling them out of the oven, dump them in a bowl and eat them.
These won't last long, I'll tell you that right now.
Don't forget to turn of your oven, though.
