Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Cinnamon Sugar Roasted Pecans.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 225°F (105°C) and give a light greasing to a rimmed baking pan to ensure your pecans don’t stick.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine an egg white with a splash of water, then whisk it until it becomes fluffy and airy—this will help the pecans get that delightful coating.
Step 3
Next, gently fold in the pecan halves, making sure each one is well-coated in the egg white mixture for maximum flavor.
Step 4
In a separate shaker or cup, blend together some sugar, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
Step 5
This sweet and spicy mixture is what will elevate your pecans to the next level! Dust the coated pecans with your cinnamon sugar blend, spreading them evenly across the prepared baking pan.
Step 6
Now, it’s time to bake! Place the pan in your preheated oven and let the pecans toast for about an hour, stirring them every 15 minutes to ensure they brown evenly and fill your kitchen with a wonderful aroma.
Step 7
Once they’re golden and fragrant, take them out and let them cool on the pan.
Step 8
After they’ve cooled down, transfer your deliciously spiced pecans to an airtight container for storage, or enjoy them right away as a tasty snack!.
