Cinnamon Spiced Pecans
Ingredients
- 3 cups pecan halves
- 1 cup sugar granulated
- 1/4 evaporated milk
- 2 Tbsp butter melted
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1 Tbsp. cinnamon yes, it sounds like a lot, but, trust me!
- 2 Tbsp. water
Instructions
- Mix sugar, evaporated milk, salt, cinnamon and water together in large non-stick saucepan, over medium heat, stirring constantly to avoid burning.
- Continue stirring until sugar is completely dissolved.
- GENTLY fold in pecans. They will break easily so fold them in very gently.
- Stir for 5 - 8 minutes, until pecans are thoroughly coated.
- Add melted butter and stir until very little syrup remains. (I like little extra coating on my pecans for a candy-like crunch)
- Remove from heat
- Immediately turn onto wax lined cookie sheet.
- Spread into a single layer (some overlap is ok)
- Cool Completely
- Once cooled, break apart and store in airtight container. (after you've sampled a few of course!)
