Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Paleo Hot Roasted Candied Pecan Bites.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 225°F (110°C).
Step 2
While the oven warms up, grab a resealable bag and toss in your pecan halves.
Step 3
With a gentle touch, use a rolling pin or meat mallet to break them into delightful small pieces—this is where the fun begins! In a mixing bowl, combine the rich bacon drippings, sweet coconut palm sugar, a sprinkle of sea salt, and a dash of cayenne pepper.
Step 4
Give it a good stir until everything is beautifully blended.
Step 5
Now, it’s time to add those crushed pecans to the bowl.
Step 6
Use a spatula to ensure each piece is generously coated with that delicious mixture.
Step 7
Next, spread the pecan bits evenly on a rimmed baking sheet, making sure they have enough space to toast to perfection.
Step 8
Place the baking sheet in your preheated oven and let the magic happen! Remember to stir the pecans every 15 minutes, allowing them to toast evenly and fill your kitchen with an irresistible aroma.
Step 9
After about an hour, they should be golden and fragrant.
Step 10
Once they’re done, let the pecans cool to room temperature.
Step 11
Finally, transfer them to an airtight container for storage, and enjoy your homemade treat whenever you crave a crunchy, savory snack!.
