Tips for Success:

• Flavor Profile: These Salted Candied Pecans are a delicious snack and also work well as a crunchy salad topper.
• Toasting Pecans: Keep the pecans moving around in the pan to prevent burning. Pecans burn easily. Since pecans are already brown, it is hard to tell exactly when they are toasted. When they start to become fragrant, you know that they are becoming toasted.
• Large Flake Sea Salt: We used Celtic Sea Salt. Please adjust the sea salt based upon your family’s sea salt preferences and/or based upon dietary needs.

Leftovers and Freezing:

Leftovers will generally keep 5 days in the refrigerator.  Store in a covered container.

This dish can be frozen.

Pantry Products:

• Sea Salt: We used Selina Naturally – Celtic Sea Salt – Lightly Grey Celtic. Feel free to use your favorite large flake salt.

Kitchen Equipment:

• Large skillet
• Cookie sheet

We certainly hope you give this deliciousness a try.

Description

Indulge in the delightfully irresistible crunch of our delectable Salted Candied Pecans as a wholesome snack or the perfect salad topper.

---

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

• 16 oz. pecan halves
• ½ cup pure maple syrup
• Sprinkle large flake sea salt *

Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

---

Instructions

1. Place the pecan halves into a large dry skillet and dry toast them over medium heat for 7 to 10 minutes.  Stir them around the pan constantly to ensure they do not burn.
2. When the pecans are nicely toasted and fragrant, move the pecans toward the center of the pan and immediately pour the maple syrup over top the pecans.  The maple syrup will immediately bubble up when it hits the hot pan. With a silicone or wooden spatula toss the pecans over and over until all the sides are evenly coated.  This only takes approx. 30 seconds to one minute.
3. Remove the pan from heat and immediately dump the maple glazed pecans onto a baking sheet/cookie sheet, spreading them out as much as possible.
4. Immediately sprinkle with a very light sprinkle of sea salt.  Allow the candied pecans to cool completely, then place in an air-tight jar for up to 2 weeks.
