Candied Spiced Pecans
Prep
Cook
Total
Yield 4 cups
Ingredients
1 large egg white
1/2 cup sugar
1t cinnamon
1t ground cumin
1t cayenne pepper
1 t salt
4 cups pecans
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl combine the egg white, sugar and spices and mix well. Add the pecans and toss to coat all of the nuts evenly. Line a 9 X 20 sheet pan with parchment paper or foil, very important, if you don't you will never get the pan clean. Bake in a preheated 225 degree oven for 40 minutes. Let cool and gently pull the pecans off the foil. Store in an air tight container or zip lock bag. These will keep for a couple of weeks.
Notes
You can use any kind of unseasoned nut that you like. I have done these with walnuts and/or cashews as well. I just seem to like the pecans best.
